PROPHECY OUT NOW 🎸🎧

My new single “Prophecy” featuring prog metal legend Derek Sherinian on keys is now available on all major streaming platforms 🎸🎹🔥

This is one where I really threw everything at it. Prophecy is heavy, progressive and deliberately expansive, moving from savage, blisteringly fast sections into more melodic passages before building back up again.

Derek and I trade plenty of highly technical lead work throughout, and on the guitar side I packed in just about every trick I could, including some ridiculously fast harmonised lead passages something I’ve always wanted to push further because you just don’t hear it done all that often.

I particularly love Derek’s Blackmore-style bended notes with that sharp staccato articulation.

Introducing The Hall of Echos - my exotic guitar pick collection 🎸🦣☄️

Most guitar picks are made to be used. These are made to tell stories.

The Pick Collection brings together rare materials that span the history of our planet and our species, transforming fragments of deep time into playable works of art. Each pick carries a story far older than any song; from mammoths that walked the Ice Age tundra, to meteorites forged in the birth of the Solar System itself.

Among the collection are picks crafted from genuine Mammoth Ivory, preserved in the frozen ground of Alaska for tens of thousands of years before being given a new voice through music. Alongside them are picks cut from Muonionalusta meteorite, a celestial visitor that formed over 4.5 billion years ago before falling to Earth long before human history began.

These extraordinary materials bridge worlds that rarely meet: science and art, prehistory and performance, the ancient past and the present moment.

Mammoth Ivory Pick 🦣

Crafted from genuine woolly mammoth ivory preserved in the frozen ground of Alaska, this pick transforms a relic of the Ice Age into a musical instrument. After tens of thousands of years frozen in silence, the mammoth roars once more.

Dinosaur Bone 🦕

Created from genuine fossilised dinosaur bone, this pick allows axemen to hold a piece of the Mesozoic Era in their hands. Once part of a living dinosaur, it has survived millions of years to become both a curiosity and a tool of creativity.

Archaeocyatha Fossil Pick 1 🪸

Carved from fossilised Archaeocyatha, these picks originate from one of Earth’s earliest reef-building animals. Collected from South Australia’s ancient seabeds and dating back approximately 538 million years, they come from a world long before dinosaurs, forests, or even life on land. Preserved through deep time and often crystallised by mineral-rich waters, each piece carries the story of one of the first complex marine ecosystems on our planet.
