I've done a bit of everything, touring, session, corporate, originals, covers, studio, composing etc. Although spend majority of time now teaching music for Durham and Sunderland Council and tutoring privately.
I'm a good enough reader but a solid lead and rhythm guitarist who's happy to sing lead or backing. I'm reliable, got a car and committed to anything I get involved in. Im not in it for the money, but I'm happy to find paid gigs, I'm more interested in playing with committed and like minded musicians, but I don't have much patience for time wasters.
I'm relatively new to Tyne and Wear so still looking to make some new contacts and meet some more fantastic musicians who share a similar outlook as me.
