OwainWilliams + Musician in Wrexham, WA

SEEKING

ABOUT

The audio clips I've put up are to showcase my playing, not the style of band I'm interested in starting. The first 2 are from my other band Xerath, and are quite heavy-ish. The last 4 are from the band Primer and are a lot more laid back.

I suppose you could say I'm a professional guitarist. I'm in a signed heavy metal band, I've got endorsements with Jackson guitars, Peavey amps, and Roland/Boss, and I do the odd product demo for Roland/Boss too. I've done a few sessions in the London/Hampshire area, and played hundreds of gigs in my lifetime.

I'm looking for something a lot more chilled out than heavy metal. I was brought up on the blues, but I'm looking for something for a more modern sound than just jamming 12 bar all night. Kind of like how John Mayer is "bluesy" but he plays more than just that.
