Richard Phillips
I've been writing since the age of 16, mostly accoustic ballads, pop and instrumentals. Started recording stuff when I bought a 4-track tape recorder in 1988.
I did quite alot of recording with this limited equipment and progressed to DAW work with Cubase. Now that the limitations have all but dissappeared, I don't have as much time as I did back then...
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I belonged to a few school and college bands but haven't played live for many years.
