I'm from the U.K but I've lived in Dubai since 1993. I really enjoy collaborating with people on this site. I would prefer to be invited to a project by a private message. If my private message button is turned off, it will because I'm already committed to too many other things.
I love spending time in my recording studio! It was designed by the late great Lawrence. P Swist. If you google his name you'll get to see the many wonderful studios in which he designed, or you could just watch this https://youtu.be/j3b0E4iNmAY I sang my favourite song as a tribute to him. Only people with the link can see it. RIP my friend!
My favourite male artists to listen to are Paul McCartney, Don Henley, Vince Gill, Rodney Crowell, Paul Rodgers, Chris Issak, J.J Cale, Steve Wariner, Lionel Richie, Ed Sheeran, Tony Rice, Brad Paisley, Albert Cummings, John Meyer & Keith Urban
My favourite female artists are Gretchen Peters, Caitlyn Smith, Dionne Farris, Suzy Boggus, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Linda Rondstadt, Beth Nielsen Chapman, Joan Baez, Trisha Yearwood, Joss stone, Etta James, Janiva Magness, Bonnie Raitt, Eva Cassidy, Matraca Berg, Lari White & Sheryl Crow.
I actually have quite a wide taste in music. Love artists like Pink, Halestorm, Il Divo, Carol Riddick, Halvdan Sivertsen, Grieg, Phil Collins, Tom Jones, Tommy Emmanuel, Bruno Mars, Fairuz, Amr Diab, Pavarotti, Adele, The Corrs, Aretha Franklin, The Beatles, Travelling Wilburys, Bruce Springsteen, John Fogerty & many more.
I sing & play acoustic guitar. If you hear any outstanding guitar work on my recordings, they will have been played by my good friend Simon!
I love Martin & Taylor guitars & mostly record with my Martin DC-28E.
I am so happy to have found Kompoz! It's a great way to collaborate with talented people from all over the world.

Mike Mantecon's lyrics were perfect for minime's song in 6/8. This is my 1st collaboration with minime & Mike Patterson & hopefully won't be my last! Mike's backup vocals are just outstanding!
