ABOUT

Extremely ecclectic taste, i have played in ceilidh bands for years.

However my interest in music is NOT trad. I would rather play Latino or Jazz / Blues , Gypsy Jazz, anything with rythm good haunting chords and a bit of melodic dynamic passion.

Can read music (ok) and chords out the real books

I play Tico Tico, Diablo Rioja, Kiko, Samba D'Orfeu, Bosso Dorado,

I really HATE playing accoustic guitar anywhere without an amp. I never practice without an amp either. It's a waste of time as it sounds like a washboard at 5 paces in bar if there's no amp.
