I am 33 years of age, and currently living in between Catford, and Hither Green. I quit my full time job in September 2015 to study creative musicianship at BIMM in London, from which I have graduated in 2018. I have been playing electric and acoustic guitar for around 17 years, and certified Grade 6 standard (at least, this was early 2015). Would be at least of a Grade 8 standard now. Amongst my freelance lifestyle, I actively teach guitar, theory, and production every week to various students. Looking at paid gigs also. I am also looking at original projects as I want to get back to jamming with people. I am just looking to see what it is out there in all tbh ! Would be nice to make some new friends in all honesty to.
I have been playing bass for around 5 years, becoming even more familiar with my way around the fretboard. I have also gigged for a year and a half in original projects. Only looking at Guitar however at the moment.
I have been playing live for 13 years, both original, and function shows. I have played easily in the region of 100 or more shows through Wales, and England. I have played and experimented with several different genres, so I am quite diverse in my ability.
I have been songwriting since 2008, and I prefer writing with other people. I also am a producer (am using Ableton Live, and logic pro X for 3-4 years now), and am up for writing with singers. Link to samples of songs, styles, and playing are as follows. If you are looking for a specific guitarist/ musician, please listen to these before contacting me :

Most importantly - I have my own gear, and a full clean driving licence. I haven't owned a car since 2018. This would only be subject to change should the correct opportunity present itself to me. I understand the importance of time, and always make the best effort to be punctual.
