Hi
I am a 37yr old Essex based guitarist, and I have been playing for 20 years, I am a fun, professional, experienced, with plenty of contacts for gigs in Essex.
I am looking for an established band, start up, originals or covers I don’t mind, and louder the better lol.
Here are my website details, please have a look and see what you think, all the information about me is on here, including – Videos, pictures, equipment etc.

As you can imagine.
Over the past 20 years I have played in a lot of bands, either full time, deping or as a paid artist, and with my latest band being Solar9 a rock covers band.
These have been varied.
· Functions
· Originals
· Cover
· Country
· Jazz bands
I am lucky enough to had the opportunity to cover so many genres, for so many great bands and artists, suppling guitar and backing vocals, whilst mainly covering the London & Essex music scene.
Gigs in and around the London and Essex music circuit include the following
· The Roundhouse Camden
· Electric Ballroom
· The Camden Barfly
· Dingwalls
· The Dublin Castle
· The Dagenham Roundhouse
· The Valentine
· The Castle-Mayne
· The Garage Islington whilst my band was showcasing for Scott Rodger (Paul McCartney's Manager) who signed us to his management company, this was to tour with Elton John and then Paul McCartney.
o Unfortunately, this never came to light, due to our bass player (a sound engineer are Abby Roads who left us to play with the band James)
· Twice at Sound at Leicester Square for Radio 1
o First supporting Finley Quaye.
o Second for an after show party for Tony Hawks
I have been most influenced by Eddie Van Halen, Steve Lukather Zakk Wylde, Eric Johnson and many many more, although my passion is the heavier side of rock music my tastes in music are quite eclectic, and I can cover most styles of music.
I have acquired a huge amount of experience in all aspects of the guitar and music industry and pride myself on my guitar tone, and constantly strives to improve this.
I have also worked closely artists like, Robbie Williams, Paul Hardcastle during this time offering technical and recording assistance, along with the likes of Mike Angleo for PMT’s first live concert and many more and Jan Cryca.
I was also invited backstage at the MIA Music Show by Jim Marshall (a close friend), as a guitarist to the live band provided by Marshall for Slash and Steve Lukather who were performing, and demonstrating Marshalls new line of amps, and slash’s new signature amp, following on from this I have been fortunate enough to played with them many times whilst they are in the UK.
