About Me

P O M is an intense and extremely gifted guitarist & composer. With blinding speed and near flawless technique, he tears into his music with all the flair of a flamenco Jimi Hendrix: Shattering and shifting ideas about what is possible or even acceptable for an acoustic guitar.-Tinfoil Music - (USA)"Sure us electric leadsters like to think we're hot but what this fleet fingered London lad can do on a nylon strung acoustic guitar. Sheesh getouddahea!!!".- Guitar Magazine - (UK)"Although playing, periodically, at almost gratuitous speeds, I conceded to the skill through his humour and considerable taste. The inventiveness with which he played his Flamenco guitar using a double-handed technique more associated with electric guitarist Eddie Van Halen captivated an audience receiving him with vociferous appreciation".- Classical Guitar Magazine, concert review: The Purcell Room, South Bank, London."You probably won't have seen an acoustic nylon strung guitar played like this before is what P O M says. No sh** Sherlock! Is my reply. P O M has all the makings of an electric guitar hero; tattoos, long hair, attitude, two handed tapping techniques and killer chops - believe me, the guy is good. What he doesn't have is a pointy headstocked rock axe and a dirty great Marshall stack - far too easy. Instead P O M abuses a Conde Hermanos Spanish made flamenco acoustic. Using techniques usually associated with the likes of Van Halen, Vai and Satriani, P O M thrashes his guitar into submission with more style, flair and musical taste than is strictly fair for one person to possess.- Guitarist Magazine.
