About

Experienced 37 year old guitarist, been playing since 14. Started on bass guitar however lead guitar is my main. Looking for bass player, drummer and vocalist for live work. I am a gear junkie, I am driven by creativity with a large back catalogue of songs and riffs written over several years. I can shred or dial everything right back to texturing/chording, no ego, I am there for the entire sound, not my own guitar. Easy to get along with, University graduate, Apple certified and currently working on Pro Tools, I still look good for my age too, slim build, I try to look after myself!

I am available most of the time, no commitments so anything's possible. Would consider working with female vocalist who can write/produce... I can probably write the tracks in Pro Tools for live performance. Don't be shy!

My adverts are up in most of the local music shops from Wrexham, Chester to Shropshire. Relocation may be an option...
