SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
UPDATED MAY 2023
I've been playing guitar, singing, performing, writing and recording for over 30 years.
Fluent in lead, rhythm, and fingerpicking styles. I also play keyboards.
Available as permanent or dep. Preferred styles: classic pop/rock, soul, funk, art-rock.
Recent projects have included:
ABBEY ROAD tribute - a band playing the Beatles album in full. I arranged the three-part harmonies and played all the lead guitar parts.
SWINGING SIXTIES SHOW - theatre production featuring a 8-piece band. I played guitar and sang.
I have recorded three albums of original material featuring band and orchestral arrangements.
I consider myself reliable and a good communicator. While I take the music seriously, I run on a sense of humour and want to enjoy any project I'm involved with.
