I have been playing music for over 25 years, I am a singer and guitarist primarily, have done loads of gigging, busking, travelling, teaching, have played in a number of bands, done session work in the past and also have done lots of solo acoustic gigs...have recorded 3 albums and write songs as well, although not as much as I used to these days. I am very versatile, adaptable, laid back and easy going. Am now working full time so would like to meet fellow players for sessions together, maybe a casual folk outfit or rock band, I don't mind the style really it's more about serious musicians who get on and aren't too precious about what they do! If you want to check me out on Youtube type in either Nick Davies Barnsley Busker and/or Nick Davies Band, there are loads of clips!
