Eh Up!Cheers for having a look.......I'm a pro guitarist, and am a graduate of the Guildhall School of Music (MMus) in London, and Leeds College of Music BA(hons), where I was awarded the Eric Kershaw Award for Guitar, and I'm currently employed as a Professor of Guitar at The Blackheath Conservatoire of Music in London. I have been fortunate to study guitar with John Parricelli and Howard Alden.I've played at many venues across the country, in a variety of line ups, from solo to big band. I've performed at The Vortex, The Dean Street Pizza Express, The Bedford in Balham and the Spice of Life Jazz Clubs in London, as well as many regional venues, across the country. I've recorded for BBC Radio 3's Jazz Line up, and BBC Radio 4's 'The Gift,' and have gigged with Billy Cobham. I've recently completed a national tour with Theatre Alibi, performing called 'Caught,' which was a new play about the life and times of Carravaggio, the 17th centuary Italian artist.I'm currently involved in a few different projects. I'm in a jazz hammond trio with Nick Peck on Organ, and Vince Clark on Drums, and I lead 'Noria,' an acoustic ensemble, who explore the common ground found between Jazz and Arabic music. I'm also the guitarist in Kid Charlemagne, a groovin funky jazzy folky type of thing, and I get to play my Flying V in Funkatomic. As well as all this, I play guitar in Mahatma, a band that play the kind of obscene 70s fusion that will come back into fashion any day now.......and then there's 'The Void,' a global beats project. I'm also working with the Rhomboid Mane, producing loops and phat grooves for R+B/Nu-Jazz singer Viccimarie Powers.I run a small music tuition service here in sunny Kent called Weald Tones, check out the website for more info!!!
