About Me




My name is Dan Brigstock and I'm a professional musician from Derby, England. I got into playing after friends got me into bands such as Metallica, Nirvana, Queen, Muse, 3 Colours Red, Coal Chamber and No Doubt. I got a few lesson and taught my self a load of stuff and after a couple of months I put together a band. It was the usual school kid stuff, but it went on to form All Things Forgotten who were a very big learning experience for me (and alot of fun too ...). You can have a listen at the bottom of this page!

Over the last few years my playing has come on along way, mainly thanks to the great teachers I've had, and incredible musicians i've had the pleasure of working with. At the moment I'm working with my regular band Addictive Philosophy finishing up our debut album and preparing to tour it. Although I try to be a good all rounder in my playing I'm a big alternative rock player. I'm known for my aggressive, melodic and intricate playing aswell as my wild hair...



Anyway thanks for checking out my site!



Dan.
