Band / Session Work
I have been involved with many different bands and various kinds of session work from a very early age. The first band I played in was called TouchStones and at the age of 14 I was the youngest member by some 20 years. I enjoyed regular gigging all over the county for several years. I also played with a successful function band called Galaxy for nearly 10 years. I have played in various Border bands including the weekly Jam session at Wood's Wine Bar in Yeovil and featuring on 2 CDs released by Border Music. I have also been involved with Pantomimes, Gang Shows and various other productions for the past 20 years.
Performing continues to be a very important part of my musical life, visiting 'Jam' nights at local venues and continuing to perform in a local function band called 'STRAIGHT SIX'.
I performed in many other groups during my earlier years including, church bands, school bands / orchestras and I used to play in the Somerset Youth Orchestra as a bass trombonist.
I strongly recommend any budding musician have a go at any of the above. I believe there is no better way to develop your skills and boost your confidence when learning or trying to master any musical instrument. It's also very good fun, not only for you, but also for your fellow musicians and for anybody lucky enough to see you perform. Go on, give it a try!!
