Artist picture
It's been described many things over the years: symphonic prog rock, prog rock, classic rock and general progressive rock.
I'm a multi-instrumentalist, arranger and composer. I've worked as a session musician and sound engineer. I've played in many different bands up and down the country, covering numerous styles. I now do solo work and currently recording an album, which I'm hoping to take out on the road on a Pubs and Clubs tour at some point. My gear consists of: One Red Special replica, based on Brian May's, played through a Vox AC30 with a Boss Pedalboard, consisting of Boss Equaliser, Ibanez Tubescreamer, Marshall Chorus, Boss Acoustic Simulator (live use only), Boss Digital Delay and Boss Compressor/Sustainer. One 5-string bass, based on my own design and specs, played through an SWR Super Redhead with an SWR Interstellar Overdrive pre-amp. Both guitars were made by Hugh Manson, of Manson Guitars. I also use steel and nylon strung acoustics including a 12-string acoustic, an 8-string mandolin, a Yamaha DJX keyboard and a Rogue 8-string bass.

Story behind the song
Melody and first opening lines popped into my head whilst I was being given a lecture about drink and drug abuse. Lyrics don't necessarily relate to that but that's more or less what inspired it.
Lyrics
Living in a world Where the rich man rules And we're all treated like Bloody fools And the man on the street Doesn't really care He just wants To be treated fair Welcome To My World Welcome To My World Living in a world Where the corp'rate rules And you get bollocked If you skip from school And the world we know Has changed through the years We don't know If we've conquered all our fears Welcome To My World Welcome To My World Take me to a world Where the beat's all around Gonna eat it, baby Gonna eat that sound So take me to a world Where your love is all around Gonna eat it, baby Gonna eat it by the pound Living in a world That's fuelled by greed And we have more Than we really need So I wanna know Wha'cha gonna do? Yes I'm talkin' I'm talkin' to you Welcome To My World Welcome To My World Welcome To My World Welcome To My World
