About me
Martin, 16, UK, Kent.
I always feel that I can never express myself properly with words…But here goes:
I play Guitar, I have many Guitars and my life tends to revolve around them.
I’m the lead Guitarist and ‘Growler’ in a Death Metal band, and I also play Bass in a Punk/ Pop Rock band (but we’re kinda on Hiatus haha). When I’m older I want to become a session Guitarist, or a sound engineer, or maybe something in the field of Maths or Physics, but I’m not totally sure yet. Ultimately I’d love to front my own (world famous) band, where I’m playing Lead Guitar. Preferably Bluesy Jazzy Rocky stuff.
I listen to and enjoy many different Genres of Music, and the genre I listen to depends totally on the mood I’m currently in.
I Love Blues, Jazz, Classical, Heavy Metal, Rock, etc…There isn’t a style of Music I dislike.
My favourite Guitarists are: Gary Moore, Joe Bonamassa, Stevie Ray Vaughan, David Gilmour, Jimmy Page, Robben Ford, Jack White, Guthrie Govan, Chris Broderick, Alex Hutchings, Andy Timmons, Eric Johnson, Marty Friedman, Tommy Emmanuel, Joe Pass, and George Benson, to name a few.
My favourite Bands are quite a diverse mix of Hard Rock, Indie Rock, Psychedelic Rock, Punk Rock, Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal and Progressive Metal. I listen to most things…I’m even getting into Electronic stuff…………The bands I listen to on a daily basis are: The Black Keys, Rival Sons, The Dead Weather, The Greenhornes, The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, Kyuss, Pixies, Wolfmother, The Mars Volta, MGMT, The Cure, Led Zep, The Smiths, etc.
+ All the other bands I’ve left out.
I love photography. I try to take my Camera with me wherever I go. I shoot everything and anything that looks interesting.
I love Architecture. When I create Art, it tends to consist of loads of straight lines and geometry, and I am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to this.
I have a Profound interest into Physics and Mathematics.
I Love Comedy. My favourite comedians are: Frankie Boyle, Omid Djalili, Sean Lock, Bill Bailey, Mickey Flanagan.
I wouldn’t say that I was that Sporty any more, but I used to do a LOT of Boxing and mixed Martial Arts.
I read a lot of Books.
I speak a few different languages including French, Spanish, and a bit of German…Not to mention English.
I have 9 Guitars…Which is cool ;D
My main Guitars are my Gibson Les paul traditional Goldtop, Ibanez RG, Crafter convoy, Dean exotica, and my Bullet Strat.
I expect I’ve forgotten to include a load of stuff XD
You may have read all of this and think I sound a bit boring.
But quite frankly, I think I Rock.
Any Questions? Just Ask :)
