About Me

29yr old Basingstoke based guitarist / Teacher / Producer
Began Playing with Basingstoke rock band Black Sky around 6yrs ago releasing two eps and gigging all around the south and london an gaining some notable write ups and interest.
Following the breakup of the band i formed Raw Vibe a 3 peice hard rock and blues outfit as sole guitarist / vocalist / songwriter with former Black Sky drummer Nick Hill (now with Those Crazy 88's). After several good gigs and some aborted recording sessions i left the band to persue my own solo stuff and concentrate on teaching commitments.
Currently iam playing in 2 bands , Overdrive which is a hard rock cover band and Programmed To Function , a top class function's/wedding band.
New blogs updated all the time so check back for news and updates , loads of pics and videos up here so feel free to leave comments or message me about anything musical or personal
