I am a guitarist. I compare myself to an actor which I suppose makes me a "character" guitarist. I have been very fortunate to land some very exciting roles in my career thus far (see discography) but the most significant has been working with Sting since 1990. This collaboration kind of defines my career and is why I am often referred to as "Sting's guitarist", an association or title I am still very proud of. Together we have recorded 8 albums, performed over 1,200 concerts, and co-written a few songs, most notably "Shape of my Heart". He keeps me busy and our journey continues.

When I am not working with Sting or other artists I maintain a career recording and touring with my band and playing solo concerts. I don't have much of a life outside of music but I am a father to six, some of whom are musicians.
