Hey all,

So I've been working on some acoustic guitar stuff recently. Being a drummer first and foremost, I've always been told I have an odd, percussive style to the way I play my other instruments. I recently discovered some awesome acoustic players on http://www.candyrat.com expecially the awesome Andy Mckee. I was inspired to learn some of their songs and techniques which has finally led to me creating my own compositions in this style. I'm going to release another album of acoustic stuff soon as well as the full instrumental stuff I've always been working on.

So here's some videos of my two latest songs. I'm using harmonics, tapping and percussive hits on the guitar body:







The videos are all high quality now as I've borrowed my Mum's camera lol. Would really appreciate some feedback from my old org buddies as this is kinda a new direction for me and my Cloud9 Mission.

Some other recent news is that my main band New Groove Formation have recieved some interest from Universal Records! I'm not getting my hopes up just yet but none of my bands have got this far before so its hard not to get excited about it .

Lastly huge thanks to my friend Frank Axtell who has been an uplifting force lately and is a much better guitarist than I'll ever be . Been going through a bit of a rough patch and I really appreciate you helping me to keep the faith my friend.

Hope everyone here is keeping well!
