Hi I have been playing harmonica for 20 years plus, My love for music started when I was 8 years old and I use to lay in bed listening to Buddy Holly.
I have been playing around the music scene for quite a few years,i also have been involved with the Launceston Blues Club for many years not only as a member but as President of the club together with the committee we have put together some awsome festivals,which has given me the oppurtunity to play with some of australia's best musicians.
Such as
Pete Cornelious
Tim Gaze & Rob Grosser
Chubby Rae & The Elevators
Marshall & The Fro Such as Blues Bombers
P.D.Hale
and many more
My Influences
Bob Seger
Charlie Musselwhite
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
JJ Cale
There are so many more influences in my life just put them all on here.
