ABOUT
I am a sound engineer turned guitar-player turned bass player. Laying down the groove is what I love to do...move over you thin-stringed peasants!
If I add up all of my playing over the last 20 years, I probably have about 2 or 3 years of overall experience.
I am currently in two bands (one full-time, one less than part-time) that play originals only.
I am looking to play and perform much more. I wouldn't mind joining a cover band right now to increase my personal repertoire...however, if you make good noise and need a bass player, give me a shout! I work hard and play harder. I won't let you down (unless you need an extremely technical player...I'm still skill-building). Throw a set-list at me and I'll learn it.
