George Martin
Biography
I am George Martin, I did not learn to play guitar till I was married.I was always interested in music since I was very young, but did not nothing about it until I married.I loved The Beatles especially, they are my favourite band of all time, but I also love many other artists, too many to name here.My favourite musical decades are the 60's and 70's, but I also like to stay current.I played in cover bands for 30 years or so, but I gave up the band due to work commitments.I then started to play solo acoustic, and I developed an interest in folk music
It was from this juncture on that I started to learn alternate tunings like DADGAD and open G and open E tunings from many folk and rock artists I liked such as Crosby, Stills & Nash, Joni Mitchell, Dougie Maclean, Neil young, and many other artists.There are so many alternate tunings I play in now.,These open tunings give the guitar a completely different sound then when playing in standard tuning.I
I also love playing and performing with other musicians and vocalists, and I frequently do so when playing live, which I love most of all.I have a Youtube channel and my channel name is shargram for anyone who'd like to visit.I am also on facebook under my own name George Martin, and I post my videos there also.I am retired now, and can concentrate on my music full time now.
I am married to my first love, my wonderful wife, with two children and three grand children.We love walking and gardening and going on holiday.
