My 80s pop journey began with me at a young age playing my brother’s cherished 45s and tapes of that Sunday’s Charts on Radio One. From those early days, I was completely entranced by the sheer power of music and how it made me feel like nothing else could.
As a teenager, I immersed myself in the amazing music of that era, and its infectious energy and timeless melodies have been a huge influence on my playing style ever since.
As soon as I could I was playing guitar as much as I could and loved every minute. I have played in bands and duos ever since and now I love nothing more than re-imagining those classic hits that I started with.
I’ve had the pleasure of playing at countless pubs, parties, private events, and gatherings across the country. I’m comfortable in all sorts of intimate settings and know how to read an audience and tailor my set to create the perfect vibe.”
Performing solo acoustic allows me to really connect with the audience on a personal level. It’s intimate, it’s engaging, and it lets the focus be on the songs themselves and the shared experience of enjoying those classic 80s hits together.
I love the challenge and the reward of taking those big, often synth-heavy 80s pop songs and translating them into a compelling solo acoustic performance. It’s about finding the heart of the song, the melody, the emotion, and delivering it in a way that’s both familiar and fresh.”
My acoustic style is all about creating a warm, engaging, and fun atmosphere. It’s about making those 80s hits feel personal and relatable, inviting everyone to sing along and enjoy the moment.
