Phil Thorell

I’m 41 years old and received my first electric guitar at 15 years of age. No lessons/internet/tablatures available and so self taught.
I played in loads of local bands around pubs and clubs and eventually went on to do BTEC Performing Arts Diploma (music and drama) then a Degree in the same disciplines and finally qualified as a teacher a year later. I teach guitar by day and play live at night/weekends with my classic rock band band ‘The Force’, and I’ve been with them 14 years. I have to admit to being more of a live player than a recording guitarist, although we do have two albums which we put out ourselves. We’ve played venues as diverse as small pubs to the Newcastle City Hall and even Wembley in 1995 and 1997 . We’ve supported Steve Vai,
Chilli Peppers, Status Quo etc.

I hope you enjoy the track and vote positively ;-)
