I'm a guitarist who's recently moved to Clapham looking to join a band to jam, rehearse and perform with. I'm 23 and have been playing guitar since I was 14, and played piano before that since I was 7. With guitar, I've mainly focused on playing lead in a blues-rock style, but have played in a variety of bands spanning jazz big bands, funk, pop, rock and R&B. I'm very comfortable playing rhythm and lead in a number of styles, in improvising and in learning specific parts.
