I am a guitarist based in Bristol, specialising in live work for Americana, Blues, Country and Folk artists and bands. I have over a decade of experience playing for a variety of bands and artists. I am known for my good nature, dependability, professionalism and ability to slot into any dynamic with ease and good humour.
Over the years I've had the privilege of entertaining audiences at festivals and in venues across the UK, from renowned venues like The Louisiana, The Fleece, and Hanger Farm Arts Centre, down to the smallest of local country pubs. I have also recorded in a variety of studios such as Crescent Records Studio, Rockfield Studios, Get It Together Recording Studio, and Firebird Studios, including live music video shoots. At home, I have a good studio set up to be able to provide remote recording work.
I have also performed in Germany as guests of Hohner Harmonica at the renowned Dr. Ernst Hohner Concert Hall for the 2025 World Harmonica Festival with my good friend, collaborator, and award-winning harmonica player and band leader, Liam Ward.
