Simon McBride was always a fast learner. A musician since the age of 13 (except for “the odd part time job in a music shop”), at 16 he replaced Vivian Campbell in Belfast metallers Sweet Savage before releasing solo records, joining Whitesnake alumni in Snakecharmer, and becoming Deep Purple’s guitarist in 2022.
Now he’s released Recordings: 2020-2025, a blistering mix of blues-rock solo cuts and refreshingly non-obvious covers (Free, Duran Duran, The Cure, Bill Withers…).
