As a guitarist much of his recorded output reflects his writing for solo (mainly nylon-string) guitar. This includes ‘Through the Looking Glass’ (2003), ‘Night Sketches’ (2004), ‘Tabula Rasa Suite’ (2014) and his latest recording ‘Last Year’s News’ (2019).
His solo performances often involve him using loops and other technology to expand the sound and scope of what one performer can do with the classical guitar. As a soloist he has performed in the UK and Europe, and has been a regular performer at the International Guitar Festival of Great Britain.
