ABOUT
Lead guitarist, songwriter, lead/backing vocalist.
Started playing around '85 in Melbourne, Australia, now living in Grand Rapids MI. Country, acoustic rock, Americana, rockabilly and some surf are my thing but have played plenty of classic rock and blues rock.
Former lead singer and guitarist for Kitten and The Tonics (50s rockabilly and country) and lead guitarist for Jimmy Sarr.
Looking for something new in a working band preferably doing a mix of originals and covers.
I've played many gigs and festivals across the USA, U.K. and Australia. I’m meticulous, professional and very experienced at positioning and branding a band to offer something different.
In my song uploads you'll find some examples of originals that I've written, sang and played all guitars on. There are also songs written by others where I have played guitars and mandolin.
