Shop page Updated
I have updated the Shop Page after a long while! I have added the Italian versions of both my blues ebooks and a couple of bundle deals. Have a look around, feel free to browse, I’m not one of those pushy shopkeepers. Tell a friend though.
New Website
It was about time to update this old thing! People seem to follow Facebook or Instagram more these days, but having a central hub served me well in the last 20 years (my first personal website was in 2001 on the now defunct Geocities) for gigs, press, teaching and selling my music and books. So I’ve updated my bio and tidied up all sections a touch…I’m hoping to keep up with a regular update on here, post some old and new tracks to keep myself amused during this pandemic. Browse around…hope you’re all keeping safe out there!
