MARCUS RICHARDSON Melodic Rock

About Me

Hi, Im Marcus, a guitarist and music tutor based in Southampton in the south of England. I have been playing guitar, writing music and performing in bands for more than 10 years. Since gaining my BA hons in Music/Popular Music in 2004 I have given lessons to over 80 students. In addition to playing guitar I play keyboards as a second instrument.

Most of the gigs I play are with Hard Rock and Classic Rock bands. This project is where I explore my musical influences and songwriting with a fresh perspective.

All music written, performed and recorded by Marcus Richardson (C) 2008.
