I've been playing since I was a teen started out in the punk alternative scene in bands but gravitated towards acoustic folk style, spent some years busking etc, I write some own stuff play some traditional and play covers particularly for pub gigs to please the crowd etc ,I enjoy playing music and don't like a lot of the crap that can go with the territory be it equipment show or ability pride' I think Music has a particular purpose in this world to be it break down barriers bring people together create a warm vibe for a function or convey a message where words fail its a gift for all Players and non players ,singers and those who consider themselves tone deaf or just Shy, I would be up to up to meet play with some likeminded musicians and see what happens as solo shows can lack the dynamic of a band or duo ,
