About / Biography

I started my love affair with music at the age of 4, sharing my bed every night with a small blue and white plastic guitar - wherever I went so did the guitar, and not much has changed since! At 13 I did my first studio session, playing lead guitar for established electric Folk band, ‘Charlie Crow’, in my home town of Sheffield, UK. In a lifetime filled with music I’ve played as a session musician, toured both in the UK and abroad in large/small venues, festivals, appeared on radio, T.V, and several albums and singles, including my own. I’ve supported such artists as SAM BROWN ( Pink Floyd/Jules Holland), SONJA KRISTINA ( Curved Air), WILLY PORTER, KING KURT, EZIO.

Late 2022 saw the launch of my new project, ’Guitar Soundscape’ . My idea to 'blend' music and visuals as an ' extension of emotions'.

For 2024, with my formula complete, please welcome PLUMA DORADA

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

In a lifetime of music there's been so many wonderful places and experiences but, at the time of writing this, the two that I suppose stick out the most are Glastonbury Festival UK and The Bluebird Cafe, Nashville.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

That's an impossible one to answer !!............Far too many !!


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I would prefer to arrive a couple of hours prior to the performance to have enough time to say "hi" , acquaint myself with the venue & have a decent soundcheck. I usually perform 2+45min sets.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I am more than happy to play outside. Preferably in a covered, flat area with adequate , and safe, power supply.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

I play original material with a few ' covers' performed in my style


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Reviews:-
Neil, just a huge thank you ,for playing our birthday bash .
You blew everyone away with your amazing set. I always knew you were very good, I didn’t know you were that good.Mate, you are a legend and Thank you so much,
John Forster

Now look, getting to witness a musician like Neil playing his first solo show in this format, bare foot, and to a crowd at a packed out pub, is one thing... the crowd (including us) were absolutely blown away, elevated, and swept off to space, throughout Neil's set. This has become a real highlight for us as a band, something we didn't stop talking about the whole way home on Sunday... but then we had to follow this act with our own headline set!
Neil was absolutely incredible, sharing a stage with such talent was an honour
Simon Ball ( Regional One )

Fantastic night with great friends for John Forster birthday, and the legend Neil Bailey made me emotional the story he told ,great guy xx
Faye Kinman

He is awesome!
Victoria Tiller
