Hey guys! I'm a versatile guitarist who has much experience playing with bands, artists and pit orchestras. I can sight-read, improvise well, have a good ear, and can pickup music quickly. My main styles are rock, pop, funk, blues, swing jazz and fusion - but am able to adapt to almost any style of music. I play lead & rhythm on acoustic, electric and nylon string guitars; and also double on the tenor banjo. I'm incredibly passionate about guitar and music in general and love almost all styles! I'm currently looking for more projects/artists/groups to be involved in so if you're looking for a reliable, fun and easy to work with guitarist please don't hesitate to contact me!

I play electric, acoustic and nylon string guitars w/ double on the tenor banjo. I've played with many bands and artists such as 'Stamina', 'Cupid Against Venus', Daniel Raso, Talia Jade, 'Naturally Fly', 'MANTL3PIECE', Rebekah Jenson, Rob "Millsy" Mills, Flip Simmons and have also played for the Australian Army Reserve Band. I also have extensive experience working in musical theatre pit orchestras, I have played guitar (with doubles on banjo) for over 21 musical theatre productions around Sydney. I played for the 2011 'FLOOD LIGHT' QLD Flood Benefit Concert supporting some of the biggest names in Australian Musical Theatre, TV and Cabaret including Barry Crocker, Lucy Durack, Amelia Cormack, Fiona Sullivan and Andy Conaghan. I was also contracted in Japan for 3 months in 2010, playing guitar 6 days a week on the "Michigan" Showboat! I recently played guitar in the 4-piece band for the 'New Musicals Australia Opening Night Concert' backing some of the biggest names in Australian Musical Theatre! I can sight-read but can also pick music up very quickly by ear. I studied advanced and extension music during high school, and completed the Australian Higher School Certificate in 2009! I'm very professional, fun, easy to work with, reliable and passionate when it comes to music!
