Do you play live?
Occasionally, at festivals and special events. A lot of my time is spent in the studio.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It has given the "not so famous" artist the chance to be heard world wide. It also has opened up a tremendous amount of resources and opportunities.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, depending on the circumstances and after very careful consideration.
Your influences?
The old blues and jazz guitarist's from the early days started my interest in the guitar. Then came R&R in the 50's and 60's which influenced me in a different direction. There are just to many names to mention when we talk about influences
