About Me

I have been together since birth, (1985) and I have been writing music since 2005. After 7 years of guitar playing, and playing other peoples music, I decided it was time to produce "my sound" which i have been working on for quite some time. Altough the tracks uploaded have a fairly laid back aproach I am heavily influenced by: metal, blues, and plain old r'n'r in alot of my other tracks.I love all music and always will. It is THE most important thing in my life at the moment. Recently I have started to play alot of folk, which is somthing I listened to alot of as a child, and I am finding it most interesting, which suprised me. It has opened my mind to a totaly difforent style of guitar playing and I am really enjoying learning the theory and logistics behind it, ( to see some folk I have written please view th video below.) That is about all I can tell you about my music history so far, so I will now leave you to make your own decisions about my music...... enjoy....peace out... JON. x

This is me trying out some folk I have written, this is a new style for me so it isn't great but there is only one thing that can happen and that is, I will improve. There is exessive head bobbing and swaying but this is what concentrating after too much booze will do to you.The recording quality isn't fantastic but what do you expect from a mobile phone! Hope you all enjoy ...Cheers...Jon.
UPDATE... To see the fuul version click on "Folk Off" below.
NEW SONG...
"The Return"
This is my latest creation.
I am pleased with this one. I wrote it about one week before recording this video. I hope you enjoy it... Please feel free to tell me what you think...

This is another recent song. Not as recent as the return but I wrote it about 4 months ago and decided to add this one aswell. Again Please tell me what you think. cheers.

My Acoustic Metal.
"GUITRYMENTAL!"
Finally it is here! Yes the one and only "ACUMETAL" or acoustic-metal. A few people know this song already. It took soooo long to write but I think you can see why. I am so very proud of this creation and I have had alot of good feedback off other musicians and one or two musicians approching me to ask if they can add somthing to it. Again as with all of my music
Tell Me What You Think!
Another, yet another new song!
"EMILY"

This one was inspired By the sheer beauty of me best friend and to cheer her up. I hope you like it Em!!
