SEEKING

ABOUT

70 years old, still 17. Started playing acoustic guitar at 40. An almost total musical ignorance allowed "kids in the sweety shop" songwriting to grow. This attracted musicians way above my pay grade who covered my lack of ability up as we played a few local Southampton pubs to 2015. Recorded 4 songs 2001, Retired now, started recording old songs for posterity, only to find new ones arriving. Now wanting to enjoy playing live again before it's too late, possibly local pubs, all original stuff, no specific genre = no fan base = don't get paid!
