Band Members: Solo Artist/Band Member
Although I do a lot of solo work and session work I am currently working with two other very creative musicians "Ged Lineham" (Drums) and Chris Stubley" (Keyboards)
Ged - Session work with "SAXON" and other bands, had chart hit in Italy with a band called "TOKYO"
Chris - As above, you can hear them both on the latest Saxon album "LIONHEART"
We have all worked with vocalist Mike Stars (ex Gary Moore Coliseum II) and
other artists of similar status.
Influences: MY BIGGEST INSPIRATIONS ARE:-
My family & friends, life experiences. I am a big fan of Randy Rhoads. To me, he took guitar playing on to another level, which opened the door to other very talented players like John Sykes (Whitesnake), Jo Satriani, Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, just to mention a few; but let's not forget Eddie Van Halen and Jimi Hendrix.
I love the great classical composers like Bach and Mozart and I am a big Paganini fan. I also love the works of composers John Williams (Star Wars) and Hans Zimmer (Pirates of the Caribbean) of which all of the above have enspired me to do the best I can.
I'm also a big fan of Peter Gabriel, how he use's the texture in his voice to draw you in to a song with his lyrics and musical rudiments.
I also draw inspirations from bands like, Rush,Ozzy Osbourne, Van Halen, Dio, Whitesnake, Giant, Queen, Pink Floyd, Enya and The Wolf.
I love listening to all forms of old/new music signed or unsigned.
