ABOUT

I am looking to join up with an established original project or a covers/tribute band that is looking to perform live ASAP - I've just moved to Toronto from the UK and I'm eager to get playing again!

I have been playing bass and performing live since the tender age of 13, and have a wealth of experience playing all genres of music (rock/pop/metal/jazz/funk/acoustic/progressive/etc) from small pub/club gigs, to weddings and large corporate events.

I'm very relaxed and easy to get along with, but I take what I do extremely seriously, and like to "get things right." I am passionate about performing great music to an audience and I like nothing better than to get up on stage with like-minded musicians to put on a good show.

I strongly believe in investing time away from the practice room so that rehearsal can be about fine-tuning the songs and working on the performance.
