THE twang of the guitar is not the sound most normally associated with clubbers' paradise island Ibiza - but I hear Stockport music maestro Tim Scott has been going down a storm on the white isle.

Guitarist Tim was invited out to Ibiza by Radio 1 DJ Judge Jules, who he has worked with before on dance tracks. Tim, to get in the spirit of things, took his flashing pink guitar along and went down so well with the crowds that Jules invited him back to play a closing party on the Spanish island later this month.

Tim tells me: “Playing out in Ibiza during the Radio One weekend with Judge Jules was a dream come true. Jules described it as wicked. He loved it so much that we put back the start of the next DJ and did an extra hour together.

“As a consequence of that, he has invited me back to Ibiza to play at the Judgement Sunday closing party on September 18 and we are now discussing dates for Ibiza next year.”
