"A TASTEFUL, MELODIC AND INVENTIVE JAZZ GUITARIST"
Marc Higgins, FATEA
Guitarist linking Earth science to creative arts.
As well as live events, I'm currently leading a 2024 Antarctic Musician in Residence programme, helping to organise a Geological Society of London event ‘Earth’s Canvas - Exploring Geology in Creativity' and working on a book ‘A Suitable Stone' with the Cardozo Kindersley Workshop.
My music has been reviewed well by jazz, folk and roots radio stations and magazines across the UK. My solo electric guitar recordings Even Song, Discover and Endure & The Song of the Ice re-imagine jazz, folk, rock and classical music. My acoustic duo with the double bass of Peter Lowit is featured on In Arden.
During lockdown, singer Alex Fordham and I remotely built our Songstring repertoire and I led the wonderful community project Our Living Rivers and Glens.
To help avoid another case of mistaken internet identity, I'd like to clarify that I am neither: Steve Garrett: Nashville-based singer songwriter, worship artist, pastor & speaker; Steve 'Static Major' Garrett: rap star; 'Stainless' Steve Garrett: Cardiff-based social entrepreneur, writer, poet and musician with a long-standing interest in men's issues; Steve Garrett: blues singer and guitarist featured on Netherlands radio; nor Steve Garrett: German country and western singer.
