23.01.2022 Hey chums, quick upload today, this is a tune I learned over 10 years ago, around when my passion for guitar exploded. The song is ‘Saltwater’ by Julian Lennon, arranged as an instrumental by the grand master Tommy Emmanuel. I played it at a high school music talent evening, which was nice, but also played it for my friends’ wedding as the bride walked down the aisle, which was lovely. iirc the groom introduced me on stage with some nice words at that talent show, so it’s a song I cherish. Enjoy. Should have some more uploads towards the end of the month YouTube link - https://youtu.be/YeOE10fwZiA
21.01.2022 Hey folks, this is a tune I learned back in high school, around the same time as my last upload. Those Who Wait by Tommy Emmanuel. It’s a reminder to take things slow and be patient, make small improvements every day. I recorded this after a good session rock climbing, tired and drained but calmed and focused.

12.01.2022 Don't Worry, Be Happy - by Bobby McFerrin, Arranged by Thomas Leeb I first heard this cover in late 2015 and it blew my mind someone could have so many sounds coming out of the guitar, I considered it impossible and threw in the towel. Now having learned the secrets of this style of playing, I learned this immortal tune in a small amount of time. Credit to Thomas Leeb for his incredible rhythmic ability. I've got several new tunes on the backburner and many old ones ready to... record, now the home setup is sorted I'll be uploading several over the summer.

01.01.2022 Hey everyone, fun tune for you today. We Will Rock You by Queen, arranged by legendary guitarist Alexandr Misko. The tuning is CGCGGC, so all power, and pure fun to play. I learned this in the early half of 2019 and was the first piece I learned using a consistent bass drum. Lots of wrist movement and coordinating both arms, rather than just coordinating both hands, was a great challenge. Enjoy! YT link - https://youtu.be/wsFdc560k-c
