About / Biography

Style wise I play Rock, Folk, Blues, Pop mainly. I can tailor the music to fit your event, so louder, softer, background or more upfront entertainment.

I use loops I generate live to give the music a nice beat and fill it up. I may use the occassional back track if needed.

I have a compact set up which is quick to set up and doesn't take up much space.

Gigging locally at a restaurant while a birthday party was going on, and kids and adults of all ages were thoroughly enjoying the music and engaging with it.

I have played and made music in a top 40 band in the early 2000's. Before that I grew up loving pop and rock music, started learning guitar as a teenager and got some great experience in various bands.

I am most influenced by artists such as U2, Coldplay, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Guns and Roses, Foo Fighters, Nirvana and many more. My favourite is probably U2. Greatest song of all time probably Bohemian Rhapsody or Sultans of Swing I can't decide but there are so many truly great songs out there!
