James watson classical/jazz guitarist

Bio:

I'm a classical guitarist, but I also play jazz and many other styles of music.I picked up the guitar as a child and have always loved playing and started out trying to emulate my heroes John williams, Julian bream, John mclaughiln etc. And later developed my own style. I now play solo classical concerts, and jazz gig's with different formations for example with the jazz guitarist, my brother (Tristan watson) guitarist (Cuffy cuthbertson) pianist (Raimundo fernandez) and jazz guitarist ( Jerry crozier-cole) I have made three cd's (Eloquence 2007) and (Soundpictures 2009) My new cd is a collaberation with the pianist Reimundo Fernandez (in company 2010)which features all our own compositions! and is a real departure for me.
