Biography:

I am a singer/guitarist and Sound Artist.My two Talks are entertaining, engaging and readily accessible to everyone. I like to engage with my audience whether live or on Zoom. MILTON KEYNES to MISSISSIPPI is my personal, exciting musical journey which began in a small village, then to London and America. In this talk I play different styles of guitar, songs I wrote for BBC TV and Radio, anecdotes of my life on the road playing support to many folk and Rock bands around UK and Europe.Recorded at Abbey Road Studios and recorded nine albums. I learnt to Blues guitar in Mississippi cotton fields with Black blues musicians.

I was Sound Artist in residence at a Nature Reserve in East Sussex for a year. and heard a Robin singing in answer to my guitar playing!
