Happy New Year pop pickers and music lovers!
I am a former lead guitar/vocalist for old rockers Wayne Fontana, Peter Noone, and Dave Berry. Here is all you need to know about my "Guitar Legends and Solid 60s" show. I am a veteran of the London Palladium, Cunard QE2, Thomson Gold and the Solid Silver 60's Show.
I cater for private functions. The evenings cabaret contains a floor jamming 2x45 minute show. Pre and post show music is supplied, so forget the DJ! Set lists are on my "GIGS" page. Please email me for a price.

The News: Updated 1/1/09 I have put a selection of photos from the last 30 years on the net for anyone I have worked with. Take a trip down memory lane and paste this to your browser:

QUALITY GUARANTEED: I was trained in classical guitar in the Matteo Carcassi method by the great Joe Riding from age 11 for 5 years and played in many bands from age 16. I toured Europe solo before becoming lead guitarist for Dave Berry (Crying Game, Little Things, Memphis Tennesee, Mama) Wayne Fontana and The Mindbenders (Groovy Kind of Love, Game of Love)and Peter Noone. I've depped for Hermans Hermits (20+ top ten hits) and knocked about with Mr Bernie Calvert from The Hollies. My show is packed with fancy fretwork, 60's classics and a "guitar legends" tribute replicating the playing of Mark Knopfler, The Shadows, Pink Floyd, The Searchers, The Hollies, Hermans Hermits, Beatles and Eric Clapton.
Former clients include RAMADA/JARVIS, MECCA, CUNARD (QE2), THOMSON GOLD, CATALONIA HOTELS, MARINA HOTELS, FIESTA HOTELS, MECCA, FERRARI, SOLID SILVER 60S SHOW, OPENWIDE INTERNATIONAL, NORMAN PHILLIPS ORGANISATION, SAGA and the LONDON PALLADIUM
and others under AIRTOURS and JMC's care.
