My name is Darren. I am a professional guitarist based in Dublin. I am mainly a secessionist and I also teach for privet music schools on the east coast of Ireland.
I am very experienced both on stage and in studio. I have toured as far as Asia (India) and have experience giggin in Europe, UK, Ireland, US, India etc.
I cover most genres, I teach classical guitar for students doing exams for RIAM, RGT, Guildhall etc. In my day to day life I would mainlyt consider myself an electric guitarist (lead) but I am just as efficient on acoustic and gut string guitar.
I studied music when I finished secondary school so I do have a qualification in the field.
Easy to get on with, laid back, don't take myself too seriously and am easy to tour with, I've got good road manners. valid passport. own gear and transportation
