ABOUT
***Currently got a full time gig on the road with White Cowbell Oklahoma until Christmas 2013. May have some availability in early 2014. Thanks for the interest.***
I'm just a guy who wants to play bass. I'm not a guitar player who plays bass because he has to. I "want" to. Been playing for about 30 years. I'm a little gray, a little fat, a little balding and a little ugly but I can play. Looking for a new fun situation! I learn quickly and have a creative style. I have a job that affords me the freedom for touring, am available for studio and one off gigs as well. Give me a shout!

House By The Sea - ?
House By The Sea - ? Year: 2004 Album: Unknown Demo Genre: Lounge
I don't even remember who this singer/songwriter is. He invited myself and a drummer friend of mine over to his house. (Where he had a stunning home studio.) We jammed for a while on this tune and some others and then we left. A couple of weeks later he sent me this MP3 demo. We didn't even realize he was recording. I don't know about the song but I've always liked the bass line that I came up with that day.
