About Me

Tagline
Guitarist
Me, Myself, and I
A full-time musician, I teach guitar in all styles & levels, Bass guitar, and Singing. I play live music at Weddings, private parties, functions, pubs, restaurants etc. I also play Classical/Spanish guitar, popular at weddings, Hotels and Restaurants.

I currently have 4 CDs available: Mixed music, Rock vol.1, Spanish guitar, and Original music CDs.

I also create 'personal' CDs-YOU choose the 10 songs for me to play/record! At a private gig such as a wedding or party, I can record the music and create a 'Live' CD-the perfect gift or memento.

I also have new Guitar lesson DVDs. Latest DVD is 'Basic guitar maintenance'. DVDs are £5 each.

I also sell backing track CDs for all guitar players, with hundreds of available backings-a great way to practice or rehearse without a band.

If you want to know more about my work, make a lesson or gig booking or order a CD please contact me direct or check out:

Music
Tons...from soundtracks to heavy metal, from flamenco to bluegrass!
Guitar players who've influenced me: Vai, Satch, Gilbert, Batten, Petrucci, Da Lucia, Pena, Albert Lee, Sambora, Steve Stevens...so many
Films
Horror junkie! Alien(s), Rob Zombies pics, Lost boys, Matrix, 300, Star wars...
Sports
JKD-Scientific streetfighting, fitness and health. When I'm taking time off music my other passion is martial arts, I did Karate for years but since moving to Scotland have studied JKD (Bruce Lee's martial art) and train as much as I can.
Scared Of
BIG spiders!! Breaking a string during a really cool song
Happiest When
The crowd go wild!... practicing, training, watching movies

    That;s great, thanks. I'll be in touch soon and probably go for the webcam option if that's cool.
    Any suggested listening/viewing in the meantime?
    Just watched Eric Clapton's Crossroads festival and G3 (Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson) live and was blown away by each performance.
    Oh, and cheers for the add.

    Hey mate, seen you a few times at the Woody in Lanark. How much do you charge for lessons?
    Just got into guitar but really want to make a go of it and hit the pubs and clubs eventually.
