I started playing classical guitar in 2011, before this I played mostly electric guitar with a bit of steel string guitar. I have played and performed around the northwest of england, mostly in the greater manchester area. I started playing guitar at age the age of 13 and have been playing for 20 years.
I have played in bands and also as a solo classical guitarist, my largest audience was playing to almost 1000 people in a venue in manchester, my greatest memory comes form studying music and playing my first gig.
