About Me

I play guitar.
I started when I was 7, I'm now 19.
I've passsed a few classical grades - most recent being an ATCL Diploma in Recital with Trinity College.
I CAN'T don't sing.
I saw Antonio Forcione 3 years ago and have composed manically ever since.
I've recorded 3 albums of original material.
The first one isn't for sale because it's a bit embarrassing.
I love Kronenbourg 1664.
I love life.
And finally - I hope you like my stuff. But if you don't, just be polite and nod agreeably. I'd do the same for you.
Oh, and check this out...
Go .. it!
Or! Rather excitingly, GuitarCDs.net are selling it now too! And for those who don't know, that's the place all the cool guitar players hang out.
Click the link below if you would rather buy it from them!

And here are a couple of lovely clippings which put a smile to my face:
"This classically trained guitarist treats his guitar the way a horny thirteen-year-old treats his body."

"...you don't know whether your ears or your eyes are bringing you the most pleasure from the performance..."
Sleight of Eye
"...strumming it, banging it, flicking it, slapping it like he's taking instructions from Swiss Toni on how he should play guitar."

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 16/09/2006
Band Website: www.willmcnicol.co.uk
Band Members: ...me. Although I often play duets with the lovely Jack Newman (he’s almost as good looking as his Ibanez). Check out "Through a Curtain of Air". We’re about to record an EP and get set up with our very own MySpace. Next thing we know we’ll be married.
Influences: Every guitarist I've ever heard. Every piece of music I've ever listened to. Every friend I've made and laughed with. Every day I've walked in this wonderful world. No MySpace page is complete without cheese, and that was my thick slice of cheddar. Enjoy.
Sounds Like: A cool, crisp Kronenbourg 1664 hitting the tongue on a midsummer evening.
