ABOUT

17 year old headbanger from Newcastle, axeman by trade, but also advanced in bass guitar. Most experienced in 80s heavy metal, but very versatile and adaptive to genres and styles. I am the founder and lead guitarist of the heavy metal band Volta and I am known for my stage presence, 80s style, and energy. I’m not looking to join any bands, just session/stand in work, get in touch if interested.
