  • Bio

    As far back as I can remember I wanted to play Guitar. When I was 19 I bought my first Electric Guitar, a Burgundy S.G.copy and armed with a handful of chords and a mountain of determination started jamming with Johnno (Mark Johnson) an excellent Guitarist and a great friend. At 22 I was playing in a Pub band, playing Friday and Saturday nights in a Bar that was an Australian version of the Redneck Bar in the Blues Brothers movie(a steep learning curve). After the band split, I played in an Acoustic Duo with Megan(from the band),we played at various places including A.N.U. I started playing Slide Guitar Bluesharp and Flute.and then Spent 12 Months in Tasmania playing at Pubs and Festivals, got Married and Moved back to Canberra,played at various local places including the Gypsy Bar,The Pot Belly,The Phoenix, The Wig and Pen and 1999s Amnesty International Candle Day. Lately getting into recording more Guitar Driven Electric Rock.(apart from the drum machine, I play all the instruments on my recordings. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

    What they say on the ASCAP bill of rights. “We have the right to choose when and where our creative works may be used for free.” “We have the right to license our works and control the ways in which they are used.” http://www. ascap. com/rights Ask APRA why they can't let you guys do the same.

    Hi Pat,

    enjoyed your tunes, very soulful, strong vocals

    noticed you had frank zappa listed as an influence, he is so often overlooked by so many, guess he has so much material that most people never appreciate the vision & unique talent he was, the only modern day artist who even comes close in my book is
    Beck. Suprised you didn't list Jeff Lang as an influence, i am mad for his stuff & he is such a
    terrific live performer, check him out if you haven't already seen him doing his thing

    cheers mate
