ABOUT

I am looking for one or two others to perform more interesting/challenging folk music e.g. more that 3 chords!

I prefer to play electro acoustic. Using a plectrum or finger picking (See Influences)
I have been playing for MANY years in Folk groups, Covers Bands, as a solo folk act and even as rhythm guitar in jazz and barn dance bands.
I have often taken lead vocal but an more than happy to do backing vocals (Tenor)
Due to Covid I have been producing recordings for a weekly podcast and I am now an expert in backing vocals, using a harmony box to produce 3 part harmonies and can play some bass and use a drum machine. In the recordings section I play all the instruments and vocals.
