SoundClick artist: FingerBone Bill

I'm a guitarist who has been playing for many years.

I used to sing too but you won't find any vocals on my tracks (so far) - I'm really into instrumental music, I think it's a really under-appreciated form these days.

Do you play live?

I haven't played live for many years. I used to play in bands but concentrate on solo playing these days - I find it more satisfying, if not a little more taxing. At least there are no arguements about which songs to play! ;)

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

MP3's and sites like this are modern music's salvation. You can't rely on the radio to play anything except the synthetic garbage that passes for "music" these days.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

Only for a lot of money!

Your influences?

I really love Peter Green's early stuff, Clapton, Robert Johnson, Santana, Knopfler.

And a really great Aussie guitarist/singer/songwriter - Jeff Lang.

Favorite spot?

Although I live in Sydney (a great place to live) my favourite place is the Cairns-Port Douglas region of far North Queensland. I could happily live there if I ever became rich.

Equipment used:

My main acoustic guitar is a "000" I built myself.
