I'm a Rhythm only kind of guy. Started back on the guitar about 6 years ago. But only seriously started writing original songs for guitar just a year ago.
I'm enjoying it! Even though I keep my job going through the week, it's back to the guitar at the weekend. My stuff is vaguely punk influenced, but strangely country-ish and beat driven too.
Unfortunately, my musical voice comes out like a drunken American.
But at 55, I'm still learning and intend to keep writing and improving until the god of music says "Hey Snotty, come and join this band".
Anyone needing an older rhythm guy in the meantime, please get in touch. Many Thanks for checking this out.

Influences
Americana, I suppose.
I like music with twists and turns and a narrative that keeps you listening. I've always listened to Steely Dan since I can remember.
Talking Heads too, But, my biggest influence, is my own desire to hit the button. And create something that will thrill the listener/viewer.
Performance being the only reason for our musical existence.
