About Me

Three independent CD releases LEARN TO FLY 2002, ST TROPEZ 2004 & DANCE WITH A FLOWER IN YOUR HAIR 2007 will be followed by a new release QUATRE in 2009. Continuing my rather varied musical wanderings, everything from Samba to Soul and all in between, a mixture of instrumentals and songs, with four guest vocalists Sara Liversidge, Diana Clark, Joe Camilleri & Tanya Riordan and also featuring the talents of my Melbourne musician friends. My career as a rock guitarist and writer goes back to the '60's (Music Express) the 70's (Alvin Stardust) the '80's (Jo Jo Zep & the Falcons) etc.... since then I've used the nylon string classical as my main guitar voice, along with steel string acoustic, electric and slide git.
