Hi and welcome to my dark corner of the
web. I am a professional musician with over twenty years experience
performing and recording in a wide range of musical environments. Although,
specialising in solo performance on acoustic and classical guitar, I
also have considerable experience on electric guitar, having spent many years in
professional function bands, performing across the UK and at most of the
top London hotels and clubs. Based in Ash Vale on the Surrey/Hampshire border, I
am able to provide the following services:
Performance:
- Solo instrumental - repertoire
of traditional, contemporary, Spanish and Celtic music, performed on classical and acoustic guitar.
- Weddings - solo
classical and acoustic guitar for ceremonies and receptions.
- Guitar & vocal duo
- with female
vocalist - relaxed, classic repertoire.
- Function band - 3,
4, 5 or 6-piece - please enquire for details.
- Dep work - if you require a stand-in guitarist or bassist,
drop me a line. My repertoire is extensive, but I'm also a quick
learner!

Lastly, for reasons well
beyond my understanding, this site behaves best when viewed with
Internet Explorer. The pages appear slightly misaligned and wonky in Firefox, although
the links still appear to work. Maybe one day I'll understand why!
