He began his music career in the band Icehouse in 1982. After playing for Bryan Ferry and Robert Palmer, he was asked by David Gilmour to play bass for Pink Floyd and has played with them since 1987 (the year in which “A Momentary Lapse of Reason” was recorded). He has toured the world three times with Pink Floyd.
Guy has won a Grammy award and been nominated for two Ivor Novello awards. He has played and toured with the likes of Madonna, Michael Jackson, Gary Moore and Roxy Music as well as working on albums by Tom Jones, Iggy Pop and Elton John.
