The Derbyshire Wedding Guitarist - Wedding Guitarist

The Derbyshire Wedding Guitarist performs a wide mixture of classical and contemporary music including classics by Mozart, Andres Segovia, Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed as well as modern popular music specially worked for the nylon guitar.

An all-round performer, the Derbyshire Wedding Guitarist is a solo classical, flamenco and jazz guitarist who has built a reputation on engaging audiences worldwide with his dynamic playing. Influenced by the likes of guitarists as wide ranging as Paco de Lucia, Jerry Reed and Joe Pass along with his dedication to practice, he has become a force on guitar.

His playing has been described as 'World class' with Acoustic Magazine dubbing his debut album ‘Simply Stunning’. Classical Guitarist Magazine describing the album 'Laid Back' as "Utterly charming" and Chris Dean, MD of the Syd Lawrence Orchestra recently commenting that his execution creates "perfect sound".

?For over 10 years while studying in Oxford University (Virology / PhD), he was the MD of the KitCat club in which he coached hundreds of aspiring vocalists. 

Over that last 10 years the Derbyshire Wedding Guitarist has focussed his efforts in the genres of classical, jazz and flamenco guitar. His love for these three music forms is evident in his attention to detail in both harmony and rhythm. 

He is available for weddings and events and currently performs live shows on Viking and Cunard cruises.
