About Phil

Rock tenor vocalist, also plays bass, solo w. backing tracks or as a band member / leader. "Sting" in active Police tribute, but others too!
Singer
Liverpool
Public liability insurance of £1 million

Played and sung in bands and duos since 1999, but started practicing long before that! Initially originals, but soon realised that if I was going to sing other people's songs, it might as well be ones that audiences recognise and love. Currently leading a Police tribute (played on main stage at Replika 2026) but also love loads of other stuff - my ideal gig would be a combination of Police, Men at Work, Sting and Colin Hay. I even thought of a name for it ("Policemen at Work"), but so far I've yet to find an audience. Oh well! It'll happen one day. Love playing with live musicians but equally happy singing and playing solo with backing tracks. My "happy place" is late 70s to mid-80s, but let's face it, there's been great music happening all the time. I'm sorry to say I don't have any solo performance footage (yet!) but please feel free to take a quick look, for a general idea of what I'm about. Thanks! Solo shows include: Policeman at Work 80s / New Wave Throwback Soul Cages Acoustic Concert Phil's Musical Attic Clearance

Mate, I'll be honest, I don't even like The Police. But you f***in' nailed that.

Phil's Song list

Pretty much anything by The Police / Sting, and Men at Work / Colin Hay!
Plus:
The songs you know. The songs you forgot. And a few you might not have heard yet.
A wide-ranging mix of familiar favourites, 80s classics, forgotten gems and a few less obvious choices — with an emphasis on strong songs, distinctive arrangements and plenty of opportunities to sing along.
