ABOUT

Hello. As a musician and composer, I am currently, and initially, looking for a violin player to jam with. I use acoustic guitar for composition, write my own lyrics, do my own arrangements, etc., but am quite open to melodic interpretations, re-arrangements; in short, bring yourself to the table and see what happens. I first started gigging in 1990 in Dublin, but haven't played live in a long time. I have a LOT of songs and am just trying to figure out a way to embellish upon them and see where that might go, with a view to small gigs to begin with - after a period of jamming together first, for a time. Definitively, I'm looking for someone who's good with improvisation and has their own style.

Influences

The list is endless! Joni Mitchell to David Sylvian, Nick Drake to Beethoven, medieval to bawdiness, Dylan to Bach. I'm old enough now to have my own style of composition. I've done everything from post-grunge to finger-picking acoustic pieces.

EQUIPMENT

A godamned acoustic guitar with dodgy strings. Doesn't affect my songwriting capabilities.
