ABOUT

*Last updated January 2021*

I moved to the Sheffield area in November 2019. I am searching for 1 - 4 people to play with to form a duo/band with to write and play original material. I would be up for doing local gigs and recording. I am pretty open as regards instrumentation and style and would love to work with anything you have to offer.

I primarily play acoustic guitar and sing, but I also have an electric guitar and have played electric guitar and bass guitar in bands previously. I record my own music at home using Ableton Live and would love to work with someone else to write songs and do the occasional cover. I will paste a link to some most recent music I released, so you can get a flavour for my style...
