About / Biography

A friendly and professional classical guitarist with a wide repertoire of traditional classical and spanish pieces, film soundtracks, and popular acoustic covers. Available for weddings and events, as well as performances at venues such as pubs, restaurants, hotels and care homes.

I can provide performances indoors or outdoors, whether that is acoustically or with my battery-powered speaker. With up to three hours of pieces to play, we can create a beautiful atmosphere for your event. I also take requests, if you would like me to learn something specifically before your event.

I'm only a message or phone call away - please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions at all. I'd be more than happy to help.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

All I'd need is an armless chair! My speaker is battery-powered and very portable, so there is no need for a plug socket.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes. My amp can connect via Bluetooth or aux cord to a device, so happy to play music from Spotify between sets and let anyone choose the music.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

Performing at the international classical guitar festival in West Dean, West Sussex. It was amazing to be surrounded by such incredible guitarists at this venue. I also enjoyed playing at the Old Market in Brighton.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Francisco Tarrega is my biggest spanish and classical guitar inspiration. My favourite pieces are Gran Jota de Concierto by Tarrega and Concierto de Aranjuez by Rodrigo. In terms of film soundtracks, I love John Powell's compositions.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started performing when I was 10 at the West Sussex Guitar Club in Bognor Regis in West Sussex. As I grew older, I played many gigs while at College and University studying music.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I normally arrive an hour before I begin playing to set up. I can play for up to three hours, taking breaks usually every 45 minutes.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

My example set list is attached below as a guide. If you would like a specific song that is not on this set list, I am happy to learn this at an extra cost of £50.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous clients would describe my playing as passionate, expressive and nostalgic.
