Bernie has been playing guitar from the early age of nine years old, when he started off with lessons in Sydney for a period of six years.

Bernie then moved to the Central West and had seven years of Guitar lessons with “Leo Dekroo”.

While having lessons with Leo, Bernie started playing with other Guitarists and playing in various bands and duo’s.

Bernie moved to Newcastle in 2002 and spent six months programming backing tracks in his home studio, and then ventured out into the Pubs and Clubs performing.

Professionalism is a key ingredient to Bernies solo shows, and he is proud of his ability to engage the crowd, and provides exceptional sound for his performance.

Bernie listens to the crowd, and takes their requests on board where possible.

He plays a variety of music, with everything from Greenday, The Eagles and AC/DC through to Foo Fighters, Ben Harper and Bruno Mars on his repertoire list.
