I'm a singer/songwriter from the Guildford area. I've been writing and playing guitar for many years but only in the last couple of years have I "picked up my guitar and played" in front of audiences.
You can normally find me hanging out at the various Open Mic nights in the area. They’re great for those who lack confidence and/or experience; those who perhaps have just a couple of songs or are just not ready for a ‘proper gig’ etc. I feel I must thank Vic Cracknell in particular for providing us with the opportunity to perform ‘hassle free’. My party trick is an acoustic rendition of Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd.
I've been playing bass for a very long time now (no I won't say how long) and was fortunate enough to join The Claire Phoenix Band as their bass player at the beginning of 2008 and what a year it turned out to be. We notched up about 10 gigs including the coveted Godalming 'Party In The Park'. If you’re looking for a laid back sound (think “The Fabulous Baker Boysâ€) with a truly fabulous female vocalist then check us out.
Come along to an open mic. night, with or without an instrument, and just see how much talent there is on your doorstep. Hope to hear you soon. Keep it live.
