I've been playing the guitar for 20+ years and i still havent reached the standard that i once hoped for. I started writing songs when i was in my early teens and like most musicians have probably drifted through most music styles, but i seem to have settled more on the acoustic sound.
I'm lucky, i record in a studio where the owner Mike Strutt produces and mixes all the tracks + plays the Bass guitar and Keyboards on all my songs, he's a top fella and the songs wouldn't sound the same without him.
If i had to describe my music, then i'd say it was a mix of Folk, country a little touch of Goth in area's and every now and then my early influences of rock show through.Band/artist history

Your musical influences
My guitar idol is Eddie Cochran, he was way ahead of his time, just listen to his instrumentals like Eddies Blue's and you'll see what i mean. But i cant play like him.What equipment do you use?
A Gretsch 6120 (Eddie Cochran used one),Yamaha acoustic and my old trusty Eko, a very mellow sound, but my main acoustic guitar is a simon & Patrick.Anything else?

That's a really great song, one that you can visualize, that gets you involved in the song, and in the setting, any more highwayman song coming? All the best my friend Clem
