About
Update Feb 2013: Still working with Cath and Retini - appearing as The Dawn Ferry and Reviva Rush respectively. But always interested in new projects so if you'd like to discuss something, do drop me a line at pear@ntlworld.com
Update Sep 2012: I'm currently working with a couple of people
July 2012: Have been actively gigging as a duo/trio with a female vocalist and (frequently but not always) a percussionist, but the vocalist is emigrating. That's what the UK weather does to you! Anyway, I'm anxious to keep the momentum and fun going so hoping to find a competent and confident singer to work with (I sing - lead or harmony - love harmony! - but like to focus on the guitar playing and anyway struggle to learn lyrics off by heart quickly!). I've also written songs in the past, but I'm hardly prolific. Very good ear, easy to work with, references available!
Influences
Very wide - John Martyn, Martin Simpson, Jack Bruce, Fleetwood Mac, Ravel, Ella Edmondson, J.S. Bach, Michelle Shocked, Joni Mitchell, Dougie MacLean, Pink Floyd, Shawn Colvin, Fairport Convention, Chuck Berry, Paul Simon, kd lang, Nellie Furtado, Joan Osborne, Greenday, Suzanne Vega, Paloma Faith, Kirsty MacColl........ always open to new input
