ABOUT

Hi, I'm proficient lead guitarist looking to get out and make some music, play some gigs and hang out with some like-minded people.

I've been told I'm a great lead player with excellent feel and a knack of knowing what to play and when to play it. I prefer to have a quick and clean set up so mainly rely on digital fx technology which is a large part of my sound.

I'm a big techie and fan of DIY, producing my own tracks, visuals and other media.

I would love to join an eclectic and creative music group that focuses on musicality and groove.

Influences

Love heavy metal, especially the proggy stuff, funk, jazz, soul, avant-garde, chiptune, FM synths, soundtracks etc (you get the idea).

Guitar-wise I had a huge appreciation for the shredders like Steve Vai and Satch when I was younger so have picked up a few hot licks from them but as I get older I appreciate great songwriting and expression more so love the ferocity of the blues stuff from Stevie-Ray and Jeff Healey and the creativity and precision of the fusion guys like Allan Holdsworth, Larry Carlton and Michael Landau.
