What tips would you tell your younger self, just starting out to play?
Don't fret if you play it wrong, have another go and hope practice makes listenable.
Tell us something about yourself that people may not know
When I was 14 I was practicing in my garage, playing bass, with my brother on guitar and a friend on drums. Three members of the band Tavares knocked on the garage door and asked if they could play a bit. My bass had never sounded so good.
Any plans for 2026?
Bit of practice, holiday, bit more practice, holiday, maybe progress my career.
Want to join us?
Make a New Year's resolution to start playing your guitar again and start 2026 with some FUN!
