Avithammer, real name Alan Guest, is a songwriter, independent artist, blogger, and comedy show wannabe from Essex.

Avit came into the game late and insists he could play the guitar when he was 15 better than he can now. Alan has a very varied taste in music although his preferred ‘cup-of-tea’ is prog rock which has surfaced only once in his writings in ‘Holly.’ After writing and recording a mini album’s worth of soul tracks with S.E.L ( of Soul2Soul fame) he has embarked on a retro/harmony/melodic pop album project mixing Beach Boys Beatles and humour.

In addition to writing brilliant original songs, Avit also writes theme tunes and jingles for Hammerschat.com as well as providing an anthem ‘Claret and Blue’ for West ham United’s move to the Olympic Stadium.
