ABOUT

I have been playing live rock for too many years to count. I am 75 years old but look a lot younger! I play anything (Hendrix, ZZ Top, Deep Purple, SRV, Joe Bonamassa, Cream, Free etc - - there's not much I can't play! I also have an Honours in Classical Guitar.
I held a residencies at Hard Rock Cafe and The Wanch in Hong Kong for the past 20 years so have played thousands of gigs.
As an aside, I used to head up EMI for Asia Pacific so have had a lot of exposure to the music scene.
