Harry was born in Britain in 1962

​

Ever since the age of eight, when neighbours gave him a small acoustic guitar from their holiday in Spain, music has been in Harry’s blood. They would be proud to know he still plays the guitar

​

Harry was classically trained on the piano from the age of nine and the organ from the age of twelve (though that hasn’t sent him blind)

​

From his mid to late teens he was part of a successful five-piece band playing pubs and working men’s clubs in the North of England; now that’s a real hard apprenticeship!

​

Since then he has continued to play and write music in all kinds of environments and with all kinds of musicians around the world

​

His influences include Stevie Ray Vaughan, the Shadows, Santana, the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Oasis, Beethoven and Mozart (yes, you read it right), the Mavericks, Motown, much contemporary music and a whole range of eclectic musical styles. Just take a look at his CD collection and you’d see what that means!

​

In recent years he has also been concentrating on songwriting and studio recording

​

Harry has a remarkable ear (no, it’s not stuck on) – he has the ability to listen to a piece of music and analyse it accurately without reference to the score, both in terms of key, chords and structure – quite remarkable really. Also, his playing is likely to get the hairs standing up on the back of your neck every now and again!
