DAVE KILMINSTER.

Guitarist. He played left-handed for several years before switching to right-handed after breaking his wrist in a go-carting accident!
Married with Anne Marie Helder, know from Karnataka, Mostly Autumn and her solo work.

After recording the unreleased acoustic project with Mario Parga, Kilminster searched for another player with whom he could double his ideas (all but three of the tracks were written by Kilminster); that person was Fraser Thorneycroft-Smith.
An album was made, but unfortunately without success.

Scarlet news Jan 2011:
As some of you may know I was never completely happy with my album 'Scarlet'... I rushed to finish it before heading out on my first Roger Waters tour (the 'Dark Side Of The Moon' tour), and regretted it ever since!!!
And so, being ever the perfectionist, I went back, added some guitars, some voices, tweaked, remixed, remastered (with the indispensable help & support of my good friend Jamie Humphries)... and now it sounds totally amazing!!!! :O))
So now, Scarlet, the Director's Cut will also be available on 4-4-11!!!! Firstly as a download on iTunes, and then later on CD...
