Seton Daunt is a guitar player and songwriter, best known as lead guitarist for the British rock band Fiction Plane. ==Early years== Daunt was born in Hastings in East Sussex, England. He grew up with a musical grandmother, who was a pianist. At fourteen, his mother gave him his first acoustic guitar, and he began learning to play from students at school. His mother had recommended that he stick with the acoustic for a few years before moving on to electric guitar. Leaving school at 18, he found a job working for Phil Manzanera (Roxy Music guitarist). He performed as an assistant in Manzanera's studio – making tea, re-stringing guitars and cleaning tape machines. It was there Daunt met producer/mixer Ash Howes, who has since provided Daunt with several opportunities to play as a session guitarist on many successful records. A year later, Daunt met Dan Brown, who introduced him to Santa's Boyfriend. The band was playing the club circuit in London, and he was invited to join them for a few songs. He played atmospherics, since he was unfamiliar with the band's chord structures. He did not join the band until several years later. In 1998, he was a member of the London-based indie band Bok, which featured Matt Crutchlow (guitar, vocals), Andrew Holdsworth (bass, keyboards), and Richard Young (drums). The band released an EP called "Alarm in the Beehive", which received praise from BBC Radio jockey Steve Lamacq, as well as some positive reviews.〔(Matthewcrutchlow.com )〕 ''Kerrang!'' gave the album three out of five stars, saying, "'Alarm in the Beehive' boasts the muscular exuberance of Ash with shed-loads of unconventional artistry, head-spinning high velocity twists and turns, and a gnashingly delivered lyric of utter lunacy. In short, this is a mind-warp of soul-stinging genius and definitely worth a look."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seton Daunt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
