ABOUT
Experienced Guitarist/Singer/Songwriter - no spring chicken in my early fifties! I record original material in my home studio, but also play live in a covers band and acoustic duo once a month or so.
Always looking for collaborators for original material or imaginative covers and mash-ups!
I’m a bit long in the tooth to promise stardom, recording contracts or even gigs for that matter, but it’s all about the joy of playing, right? Hit me up if any of this resonates with you!

Influences
When it comes to my tunes, imagine quirky British Guitar pop/rock derived from the music of the 60's and 90s but blended at times with a large slab of joyful 80s electro-pop! Strong melodies and hooks combined with tight vocal harmonies are frequent characteristics.
Influences flow heavily from songwriting greats such as The Beatles, Squeeze, Brian Wilson, Paul Weller, Carole King, David Bowie to name but a few.
