ABOUT

Updated 29.5.26
I am an experienced and versatile guitarist.
Looking to get back into playing live as have not played since pre-covid.
Looking for permanent or cover/temp position in covers, pub or party band.
Happy to commit to weekly rehearsals if appropriate. Also happy to learn songs individually.

Experience playing as a 60's duo, 9 piece soul bands and 4/5 piece pub covers bands, playing the standards and the more up-to date.
I own my own gear and transport, would prefer local (Worcestershire/west mids).
Can sing a bit if needed.
Although not a shred machine I have been known to learn some 80s hair metal from rhythm perspective.
I am easy-going, and mix easily with people. Enjoy the more engaging fun gigs and have a GSOH.
Playing is all about the audience having a good time for me.
