About Me:
My day gig for over twenty years is teaching guitar. Before that I was a working guitarist, usually six nights a week with occasional stints in the studio. I still play about six to eight gigs a month in a classic rock band. I've composed for live theatre productions of, The Madwoman of Chaillot, The Laramie Project, The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe and several other plays. I've been studying film scoring for about a year and a half and have several of my works posted on my website.

Very cool music! I had no idea what to expect when I put on 'Surfin' Vaquero' and was pleasantly surprised when the guitar kicked in. I love Classic Rock too. I like Steve Howe, Andy Latimer and Mark Knopfler. You've got a lovely warm sound like all these guys. Keep on rockin!

John,
Your stuff is great. I'm sitting here as someone whose instrument of choice is guitar yet I prefer to dabble with every virtual instrument under the sun while leaving my guitars hanging on their racks. I'm not suggesting I'm a great player but listening to your use of guitar in all genres tells me I'm a chump. I'm off to write some guitar cues.

Cheers
Ray

Hi John. Thank you for your invitation on your page. All your music is beautiful especially The Chase and Crossing the Wicklows ... and Jamin@JoJos. If to say by simple words, I like all of your tracks.:)
