Thank you so much for dropping by and looking at the profile
and listening to my music.
I started playing guitar around 1980, I don't know what inspired me
exactly but in those early days one of the most influential albums
I was listening to was Mike Oldfield's Tubular bells,
I just loved the complexity and musical textures created there,
In 1981 I had my first electric guitar a Westbury standard
which in its day was a great guitar for the money.
I started guitar lessons alongside my best friend Craig
and we set about learning together from then on,
Just jamming for hours in the bedroom.
In those days the passion to play just flowed
and I remember that I couldn't wate to get home
from school and just pick up that axe!!!
In 1982 in incredible change happened in my life
I had a personal encounter of the love of God
in a way that has changed my life forever,
I asked Jesus Christ to forgive me of my sins
and I have found him to be my best friend
and in whom I can depend on for all things.
Soon after settling into a local Church I
started playing Guitar alongside Craig
who also became a Christian at the same time,
Its amazed me that we both came to the lord
at the same time and we began playing
Praise and worship in the youth grou
and in the main church services.

In 1987 we set up a Christian rock band and played
all over the place for many years and had a great time
doing that. In the early 1990s the band split up
and I concentrated on bringing up my young family
and sold all my electric guitar setup and purchased
a Martin 016 copy which sounded great ,
So I concentrated on playing acoustic guitar exclusively
and soon discovered a love for acoustic music.
I continue to play acoustic guitar in Church
and compose instrumental guitar music which
I share with you today.
My main aim is to make music to glorify God
and hopefully bring peace to the listener.
My prayer is that you will find Gods love in your own life too,
he always listens to every prayer.
It says in the Bible taste and see that the lord is good.
Thank you for listening.
God bless
