ABOUT

Update - I'm currently playing in two covers bands so my time is very limited. I'd be interested in working on original songs as a recording and/or occasional live project, but don't really have capacity to do anything that has regular gigs.
I've been playing for over 30 years, and have a lot of experience with both gigging and recording.
I have professional equipment and transport and can play in a variety of styles. I'm reliable and easy to get on with and can sing harmonies/BVs too if needed.
My influences are many and various, but I love shoegaze, psychedelia, art rock, late 70s new wave, some prog/classic/hard rock, some 80s pop. Not hugely into funk, soul, blues or jazz.
I'm quite open minded about what I do... something with keyboards is always appealing but am open to any ideas.
