ABOUT

60 year old Guitarist - mainly played Bass Guitar in Blues Rock bands in eighties and early nineties, but have recently been playing solo acoustic blues. Preference is to find some other blues players to gig or jam for fun. I have a wide range of musical tastes formed throughout my life but in the last thirty years have developed an immense appreciation of Blues music whether electric or acoustic.
