Phil Stoodley
(Auckland, New Zealand)
As fate had it, this musician was given his first guitar at age fifteen after his dad ‘got lucky’ at the horses. By seventeen he was bashing out tunes in a heavy metal rock band and making a name for himself at pubs and festivals throughout the lower North Island of New Zealand. Over the years he developed a warmer, more laid back sound that eventually evolved into his newest direction, that could be described as Acoustica meets Electronica meets Pop.
