"I am heavily influenced by Ry Cooder, SRV, Clapton, Hendrix, Santana as well as having a great respect for George Benson, Steve Vai and pacific rhythmic guitar players.

"Taking these influences and building songs is what excites me - not only in the blues rock genre but other such styles such as pacific reggae. Pretty much songs that have guitar solos not guitar solos that happen to have songs.

"Having said that, finding that awesome, far out, heart wrenching, spirit uplifting guitar solo is what continues me on that 'Indiana Jones' search for it". - Billy TK Jnr
