I think that it's more than fair to say that my music has a Christchurch Jazz/RnB/Blues influence, and that's what sets me apart from most of my peers. People that think of me as a classical guitarist probably aren't aware that I was a rhythm guitarist, and by Year 13 I was the rhythm guitarist for the Christchurch Secondary Schools Big Band. That's why I dedicated the recent album to Steve, as all that Latin flair is his doing! 🤣 - I prefer nylon to electric. With a good PA, it's very similar in terms of how it projects. Mic pointed at the 12th fret. We use mid-side setups to capture those guitar videos.
