About george

Started my musical life at about 5, with classical piano training. I continued with that until high school, competing in theory and performance along the way. In high school, I took up tenor saxophone and guitar. I started playing in bands on all the instruments I played so far, also sitting in occasionally on bass, and having to add flute to my stable for a horn band. Later I got a chance to do some recording for jingles/commercials. I ended up being the first call guitarist for Citisound recording, as well as helping out with synthesiser programming. Unfortunatley, the studio decided they couldn't afford to make the changeover to digital, and so, closed their doors. Increasingly frustrated with other's interpatations of my music, I decided to build my own recording studio. That's where I'm at now, building, buying and learning. Great fun. When I have time, I also fish Bass tournaments, Road and Mountain bike, and vegetable garden.
