Phil is an accomplished singer/ guitarist and songwriter who has spent twenty years in New Zealand and is married to a Kiwi lady. He recently rediscovered his love for the Folk Tradition of his native England, became a full-time performer and has been based in England since 2008. Phil now divides his time between the UK (where he lives and performs from April to December each year), and New Zealand (where he lives, records and performs from January to March each year).
He is available for folk and acoustic gigs at clubs, festivals and concerts throughout the UK, NZ and OZ over these periods. In concert, Phil engages easily with audiences, and you can expect to hear his own unique arrangements of songs from the English and other traditions, self-penned material, and odd contemporary pieces that occasionally take his fancy.
