ABOUT

I’ve been playing guitar on and off for the last 30 odd years. I’m mostly interested in my own compositions these days and would say that I keep things pretty simple. That may be interpreted as code for a 'simple player', but if I’d review my technical ability I'd put myself in the intermediate to slightly advanced range. Depends on who I’m comparing too. I’m a terrible expert but an amazing average. I would say that I was initially drawn to an acoustic sound mostly, however, since I bought my Les Paul a year or so ago, I feel brand new. I’ve been completely invigorated, energized and inspired to play more than ever, which I have been doing. I would like to improvise with other musicians with the hope to support a lead singer who would be open to giving more life to the tunes I've written as well as their own.
I like a wide range of sounds and feel that a good melody is the key to a good tune.
My voice is spectacularly ordinary, you can vouch for me with that if you have a listen to the few songs that I've uploaded. I'm best suited to not singing at all but can get away with some backing vocals for certain types of rock tunes. - if you turn the volume to low on my vocal amp. The songs I've attached don't reflect all of my tastes in music but I'm absolutely certain this is not the best way to sell myself as a musician. These were flimsy recordings, using video mode with my phone. I'm not sure how many songs I've written but's it's definitely in the double figures now
I'm super keen to get something together with the main aim of playing to have fun. I’m especially drawn to the comradely connection through music. That said, if I could ask for anything, a wish, I would like to record a bunch of original tunes. And ideally tour them. Pipe dreams feel better than no dreams at all. I have a strong desire to do this, I’m well aware of my personal insecurities and, despite my ordinary vocal's, I'm enthusiastically motivated to making this happen. I love supporting other people’s creative endeavours too.
