   About Neil C. Young
Excellent feel good instrumental jazz’-Keith Ames, Musicians Union (U.K.); 'You got it going on!' - Kelly Lancaster (Willy Nelson, Dixiechicks); ‘Simply beautiful,such beautiful melodies with all the inner movement that just lets everyone have something to listen to’-Michael Kent Smith; 'You got swing' - Gary Walker 'a fresh approach, just whats needed' - Will Phalen ‘great player…very talented’–Kathy Curtis WSJT 94.1; ‘You play like Charlie Byrd but swing harder!'-Brook. 'wonderful music..' - David Kilpatrick (Burnley Express), 'Awesome' - anon. empolyee Borders Bookstore, Houston, Texas; Voted no.1 in June 2006 by visitors to Jazzworldquest.com; Shortlisted for International songwriting competition 2006; Artist at the 2006 Zihuatanejo International Guitar Festival; Honourable Mention from the Canary Islands International Songwriting Competiton 2006. Neil C Young is an extremely gifted guitarist who is beginning to establish his unique talent as a performer and composer both in Britain, and more recently in North America. In a contemporary musical climate which is often overcrowded with an eclectic range of guitar styles, Neil not only acknowledges these various influences, which includes bossa nova, bebop and blues, but also displays an in-depth knowledge of performance and composition, which were key to his studies at Birmingham Conservatoire. His performance and playing delights in playful, fresh and beautiful harmonic interpretations of both standards, and original compositions. Neil continues to teach and perform and is an active participant and frequently invited performer at guitar festivals throughout the world. His Guitar studies with Gary Boyle and and with Fred T Baker at the Birmingham Conservatoire(UK) led into composition and arranging. After leaving the Conservatoire he continued playing with many different ensembles performing original compositions and arrangements. In 1999, he joined forces with Sam Dale (The Big Mojito, Deep Cabaret) and Richard Young (The Earlies, Indo Jazz Fusions) to form Rokasayers, a Hard Jazz Rock Fusion power trio. For 5 years they wrote and performed to high critical acclaim. Neil C. Young has performed with other artists such as Gary Boyle (Isotope, Mike Westbrook), Barnaby Dickinson (Tim Garland, Dave O’Higgins), Steve Tromans (Indo Jazz Fusions, Howl, De-Bop). This educational and performance background combined with an attention to detail to produce music with a real combination of expression and technique. Neil C. Young recently recieved a Carlos Juan CP-1 VIP model acoustic guitar pick-up and is now a VIP reference for Carlos' excellent work and products. Alongside such artists as Eric Clapton and George Benson to name a few, Neil C. Young's name now appears. It is a great honour to be associated with Carlos Juan and the other great guitarists.

Hey Neil!
Thanks for the comment-only just read it! Actually, I'm stood in front of a poster in Barnsly...not really, it's Marseille about 8 years ago hence the smaller gut (I'm sucking it in as well!).
Hope all's well youth...

PS Just borrowed a Hammond B3 Emu effects unit (bet your mate's got one)- it's superb! not that I ever play anymore- kids and visits to barbers take up all me spare time

Why thank you Mr Young for your kind comments. I'll have to stick the Abba medley on here for you, if it's cheese you're after. Lovely tunes, 'Arthur Paul Calf' is a personal favourite, not only because of the drummer too.

Hey guys this is a mass comment.

Just wondering if you could spare some time to vote for us in the AAA Music Finity competition. You can find the details on how to vote in the about section of our page. If you can't be bothered it's ok, just have a listen to our tunes and let us know what you think.

Thanks a lot.
