Here are some videos of me playing covers of some of my favourite songs, and four of my own songs.
Almost all of these are my own unique versions of the songs with only a few where the guitar part is close to the original.
The songs are all very stereoey and will sound better on headphones.
Where the calm comes by Craig Hood
My own words and composition. This is the first finished song from my latest unfinished album.
It's my first attempt at a proper music video. It's pretty basic, but I may get more into video/animation later.
The photos used for the video can be bought on my photography page.
