My personal experience ranges from playing session guitar for other musicians right through to singing lead vocal, playing guitar and piano and writing music for my own bands. Regarding the last of these, I have written a good deal of my own material over the last 15 years and in recent years this has received BBC airplay and resulted in interviews in both the Sheffield Star and SheffieldLive FM.

I am certainly happy to share this knowledge and experience of songwriting and composing with people interested in this area themselves: it’s not a straightforward thing but very interesting and very rewarding!
