I'm a versatile guitarist with a studio set-up. I draw on a range of styles from folk, jazz, & blues. Recently I have been focusing on doing jazz-based numbers accompanying vocalists and lead instruments usually in duo/trio formats for live performance. I also play and write in other styles. I am interested in working with musicians for pleasure, recording projects and or low key gigs.
