"...everyday we learn something new - that's what makes playing the guitar so exciting !  And to be able to see joy and real emotion from others in response to our playing is a fantastic reward in itself..."

Performing Experience:

He has a wealth of experience and has spent many years performing in live situations. 

As a young man, he gained practical experience playing and touring as a soloist and also with other guitarists and bands, playing various music styles. 

One of the highlights of his career to-date was in August 2004, where he led (as a guest) a 'Glenn Miller' tribute orchestra performing at the outdoor amphitheatre in Pieria, Cyprus, which he understandably describes as "a fantastic experience and atmosphere..."

Between 2002 and 2004 he played for 2 full years in Cyprus, 4 times a week, as a 'lounge guitarist' at the 4 star Agipinory Hotel complex in Kato Pafos. 

He also played 2 or 3 times a month at the 5 star Aphrodite Hills Hotels in Pafos. He often acquired extra work from guests and business acquaintances at these venues as his reputation spread in the region. 

As a result, this time period also involved numerous performances in Restaurants and Hotels throughout the island.

In 2005 he travelled to New Zealand, where he performed solo at small Hotels, Bars and Restaurants and as a warm up act for touring bands including local popular acts such as the 'Swinging Blue jeans', 'The Dakotas' and 'Billy J Kramer' where he toured and performed at the Mecca Complex, Auckland.

Since his return to the UK in 2006, he has been playing at local Pubs, Clubs and at private functions such as weddings.  He also plays once a month in a "Shadows" Tribute Band in Kent.  He also now teaches electric guitar, when time allows.
