Paul Kent (aka GUITAR PK) is a self-producing, musician presently living in Suffolk, UK.
It’s harder for guitarists to explain where music comes from than it is for songwriters to explain lyrics. However, I’m inspired by music with vocals and words. With my own music, the guitars are the vocals. Guitar influences include Jimi Hendrix, Andy Summers and Jeff Beck.
Between the mid-80s and 2000 I was guitarist and co-songwriter in two bands, the first a heavy metal outfit, followed by indie pop rockers Freak Scene – inspired by the Dinosaur Jr. song. We gigged at some of London’s top venues like Water Rats and The Hope & Anchor.
Then I worked as a designer in London’s media and advertising world. Once I became a freelancer, I wasn’t tied to a daily commute. There was more time for music, so I decided to fly solo. Inspired initially by Mike Oldfield’s 1973 self-made opus Tubular Bells. I’ve also collaborated with Chicago songwriter Diane Marie Kloba, released as That Road.
