About / Biography

I am an experienced vocalist and acoustic guitarist performing classic rock ’n’ roll, country and 60s–70s favourites.

My set includes upbeat hits and singalong classics from the golden era of music — from Elvis and Chuck Berry to Johnny Cash and Billy Fury — plus a touch of reggae and feel-good favourites.

Performing live with acoustic guitar and vocals, I create a warm, comfortable atmosphere that works perfectly for care homes, restaurants, social clubs and special celebrations.

Friendly, reliable and professional, I adapt each set to suit the room and the audience.
