ABOUT

I joined Fox Force 5 in May 2010 and have been having a blast ever since. Before then was a long break, with occasional forays into bands with friends covering mainly classic rock. Back in the early '80s, I had a stint with NWOBHM (are you old enough to remember that? Google it) band Weapon. I don't play as much as I would like, so I could be persuaded to also play with a classic rock or blues/rock outfit, my natural home territory.

Influences

I think of myself as a poor man's Gary Moore. Also a long time ago Schenker, Blackmore, Lizzy et al. but with the band we (and I) tackle pretty much anything that will work. My style is however classic blues/rock.
