spotify:album:4CvDljqpyOVfwTV2CludIH Stevie Ray Vaughan, so much has been written about him that you have to wonder is there any more to actually say? As I write this I'm listening to the track Couldn't Stand The Weather off the album of the same name, which features not only a magnificent head bending intro with it's staggered...

Spring has most definitely sprung, it's 21 degrees in London today and tomorrow should be even hotter. It's been pretty good weather all week to be honest, not to hot but the sun has been shining, and that's when I noticed something. I have noticed it in previous years but this year I'd like to...

So it's here finally! My new track, W.G.R.V which is dedicated to my Grandads' William George and Ronald Victor. This is the first time I've ever cracked the 3 minute mark with a song I have written so it's quite a milestone for me. The song is purely instrumental and guitar focused, all drums and...

New track on the way, just needs some final mix tweaks and a bit of mastering. Have to say I'm really pleased with this one 🙂 Recorded on Logic Pro X
Volbeat are something of unique band within the world of Heavy Metal music, well they are in my opinion.
