I'm a long-haired, rockin' guitar player who goes off on stage. I love playing Blues and Rock but I am extrememly versatile having performed with the Indonesian Wind Orchestra and played as a session guitarist with famous Indonesian artists on national TV stations.

I've been playing professionally in bands for 18 years, worked widely in Australia, as well as New Zealand and Indonesia. For the past 10 years I have been playing with Australian bands and as a session guitarist and arranger for songwriters. I am the owner of Harry's Guitar Studio music school in Sydney.

My guitar playing ability saw me recognised as one of the best and most respected guitar players in Java, Indonesia, for three consecutive years. I was awarded the title of Best Guitarist in which is no mean feat when you live on an island that has a population of 80 million musical people.

Over the years, I have played many different styles of music in pubs, nightclubs, parties and concerts as well as TV shows.

One of the reasons I am so sought after as a session player is my ability to adapt quickly to the style and repertoire of any band I play with.

I would describe myself as a rich and versatile player. My musical roots lie with The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Scorpion, RUSH, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and other creative bands from the 70s and 80s. My playing has a wide variety of influences ranging from the sweet sounds of Eric Clapton to the technical playing of Eddie Van Halen, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai.
