SEEKING

ABOUT

I’m a touring guitar/drum technician with bands such as Oasis, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Snow Patrol, Jeff Lynne’s ELO, Biffy Clyro and Kasabian to name a few.
I’ve played guitar with Kasabian on a number of occasions as a guest and stand in for bass and guitar. I’ve also played with Duff McKagan live as a guest a couple of times.
I write my own music while in tour. I have one psychedelic progressive project called Aelita Red.
I’m also looking to join a band as I haven’t played live for a while and I’m getting quite itchy!

I also write music for TV which is regularly used on BBC, ITV, Discovery, MTV and loads of other channels worldwide. Find out more www.djwsongs.co.uk
