My name Chris Hopgood and I am one half of an acoustic duo called Acousticat (pls check out our soundclick page), aswell as a lead guitarist, mandolin and banjo player in an death western country punk band. This page is for my stuff, my songs, my music, also some of my bands stuff, and something I have wanted to get out for a while. Hope you enjoy. Chris
Band/artist history
I have been playing guitar since about 1994 and in that time I have played in punk, jazz, rock, blues, folk, funk and country bands. All of which have effected my style in many ways, although my first loves are blues and jazz. I love playing and love playing with and meeting other musicians. Its the way to learn.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I play live most weekends in various bands and i love it. Highlights of last year were playing glastonbury festival and supporting shane McGowan with the death western band 'Lady Winwoods Maggot'.
Your musical influences
Steve Earle, Roy Harper, Ben Harper, Eric Bibb, Al Di Meola, Hendrix, the blues - i.e. Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker etc. Kelly Joe Phelps, Alice in Chains, Gov't Mule and more.
What equipment do you use?
Cubase SX (looks like they may have got it right this time) and Fender and Takamine guitars.
Anything else?
Can't think of anything right now but may come back to this bit.
