Rohan Chadwick
I am a songwriter, who intends to gather a band, and maybe learn to sing. I do a kinda rocky style of music, the two songs that I consider complete have been likened to Audioslave/RATM in parts for one, and the other song has two main riffs one of which is like Jet, and the other is like Graham Coxon...
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I don't play live at the moment, but intend to practice a bit and maybe start.
Your musical influences
Ocean Colour Scene, The Offspring, Audioslave/Rage Against the Machine, Blur, Graham Coxon, Feeder, Matt Costa, The Levellers, Jet, The Vines, Reef, Kula Shaker... The list goes on, but they're the main ones. Newer influences include Flipron and Kaizers Orchestra.
What equipment do you use?
Two Ibanez guitars (a JS100 and a 1980's Blazer custom), an Epiphone Junior valve amp. Pedals: a Marshall the Guv'nor overdrive, a Marshall Jackhammer OD/Dist, a WahWah (unimpressive brand) and a Dan Electro Talk-Back reverse delay pedal. also a battered old (nylon) accoustic and cheapo soprano ukulele. A recent addition to my kit is a 12 string acoustic. I like to pretend I have a degree of skill on the piano, but I'm just kidding myself really! I have recently taken up the violin, so maybe some more of my folky influences will start to appear?
