Highlights
I've been playing guitar for the last 13 years now and have worked in different areas of the music industry. I have been lucky enough to make a living out of something I'm really passionate about and have had the opportunity to meet and play with lots of great musicians.
I have worked with a number of different bands through my career ranging from rock, soul, jazz and even celtic. I have also had the pleasure of teaching a number of talented guitarist who have gone onto grade 8 and beyond. Including some that I'm proud to say now have a career in music.
Throughout my career I have gained a lot of different experiences including performing at theatres, clubs, pubs, w.m.c's, holiday parks, festivals, balls, radio. Teaching privately as well as in schools and workshops. Examining in the UK and abroad and work as a session player both live and in the studio.
Some of my highlights have been performing at the Octagon and City Hall with Highway Child, performing at the Library Theatre and Doncaster Pride with The Bowie Contingent and playing the O2 with Acoustic Child as well as performing and being interviewed on BBC Radio Sheffield. Highway Child also recently played a wedding which was attended by both Prince Harry and Prince William.
