..I am a guitarist from south-west London. Have been playing for around 6-7 years. I got into jazz when Sam Eagles invited me into his band a few years ago, then i joined the Jazz Funk Collective which is run by Duncan Eagles - look out for gigs on the JFC page.
I started going to the Ram Jam Club jazz jam session, and then got a few lessons off Dan Redding who got me interested in trying to play over changes. I joined The Royal Academy of Music junior jazz course which was amazing, and very hard! i highly recommend it. The course culminated in a gig at Ronnie Scotts with John Parricelli - very inspirational!
Since then i have been doing auditions and things and am going to Birmingham Conservatoire in september. In the meantime, i have been doing the house band in a jam session with Pharoah Russel, Max Luthert and Duncan Eagles which is starting again from June every monday at the Ram Jam Club, Kingston. Please come down!
Places i have played at over the years include: The Ram Jam Club/Grey Horse, The Bleu Note (Dublin), Boom Boom Room (dublin), The Bulls Head, fairfields hall and Ronnie Scotts with Junior jazz course.
I really enjoy jamming, and am always up for playing so send me an email if you fancy it! Cheers
