About Me

I am a lover of music, first and foremost. I play, teach guitar and have a Dregree in Music. I have also studied at the Guitar Institute, in London, and at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood. Though, still learning and always will be.I'm currently keeping busy dep'ing for a number of bands locally. Aswell as, fronting a trio, called the DIRTY SOCKS, that play Robben Ford, Steely Dan The Beatles and so on. I call on some great local playing talents to help me out such as Will Morris on drums, Neil Simpson on bass , Roy Adams on drums, Mark Knight on drums, and Dave Clarke on bass to name a few....all amazing players! Check 'em out!I have regular weekly gigs performing mellow solo Jazz guitar too, which is both highly enjoyable and challenging. I playing jazz standards such as Polka Dots And Moonbeams, Georgia On My Mind, Spring Can Really Hang You Up...and so on.I'm always keen to meet, and work with new people on new projects or Dep work just message me :)
