Hey there! I'm Mikey! Bit of a rock/metal guitarist (more 80s than modern metal) but I do enjoy a bit of pop as well. Anything fun! I'm mostly self taught so my knowledge of music theory is pretty basic but I know enough to get by. I've been playing for a while now but I'm a little rusty. Need a project to get me playing again! Open to most anything. Doesn't have to be heavy as long as we can have a laugh while doing it! Open to duos, trios, bands, whatever! I've also got a basic home studio setup that I don't spend enough time with. If you happen to be a singer/songwriter that wants to record a demo, hit me up! I could use the practise. Genre and experience dont matter!
I do have a couple of recent tracks on Spotify. More soft rock kinda stuff that I've done for someone else's project. Let me know if you want a sticky beak and I'll point you in the right direction ????

Influences
Early on I was influenced by the usual rock and metal suspects. Megadeth, Metallica, ACDC, G'n'R etc. These days I tend to vibe with anything a bit spooky or tongue in cheek! Ghost features prominently in the current rotation. Alice Cooper is always a winner. ZZ Top with their cheeky, bluesy brand of whatever and plenty of 80s glam!
