Pure Acoustic


Welcome

I'm a lecturer at the University of Hull but also play professionally in my spare time. My main influences include Travis, David Gray, Cat Stevens, Damien Rice, José González and Jackson Browne. Latin influences include Lucio Battisti and Pino Daniele. I would describe my music as 'world music' as I am influenced by so many different styles especially traditional Italian and Spanish guitar and mandolin. I've been singing and playing guitar since I was 14. Originally it was all acoustic then in my late teens I focussed on electric guitar. The last 10 years however has seen me return to my acoustic roots.

I've been fortunate enough to do a lot of travelling and have met people from many different societies and cultures. This website and music is dedicated to all my old friends (and maybe some new ones too). Please feel free to download the music and join the Mailing List to keep up-to-date with music/video uploads and gigs.
