About Me



I was born and raised in Herefordshire, BEAUTIFUL part of the world & will always be home to me. I caught the Rock N' Roll bug early (Cheers Dad!!), didn't fancy doing much at school until I took Guitar lessons then it all made sense!! Played in loads of Covers/Original bands around the Midlands then decided to make the move to London, to Camden (Streets are paved with gold, don't you know?!) and got into Guitar Teching/FOH through some friends. Have had and continue to have some GREAT experiences and met some GREAT people doing it.
Camden cost me a fortune and I missed the Herefordshire countryside too much so I moved back up in March 2007.
