About me

Hi

I'm a singer songwriter, guitarist from the UK, currently living in Barcelona, Spain.

I just recorded my second album (out now on Black and Tan Records) and I decided to try some new sounds as it is a purely solo record. One of the things I tried out was Cigar Box Guitar (3 string) and it's turned in to the real hit in my live shows and on the record. So that's how I got into it, that's how I got here and that's how I'm going to probably spend any spare money I have for the next year or so as I am addicted!!!!

You can check my official web page here - http://www.davidphilips.net

Cheers

DP :)

Hey David glad to welcome you as a friend. I think your sound is very pleasing. I'm a retired patternmaker who just built my first CBG and am now addicted, my second will be finished next week. I have always wanted to play guitar,and am going to learn? just having a time getting my fingers to catch on.
