Dave Baun - Bassist + Musician in Hallett Cove, SA

SEEKING

ABOUT

I play around with lots of things but BASS is what I do best!

I am pretty much open to anything these days, but here is little history...

I've played in lots of bands over the years, both cover bands as well as original music projects. I prefer being creative, working with others to write music. But recreating cover songs and making them unique to the band is always fun too.

I grew up listening to lots of different bands, 60's thru the 80's. I was always mostly into metal and progressive rock. Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest at one end, and Yes, Rush & Genesis at the other.

Today I still enjoy hearing that stuff and playing it once in a while. I've really gotten into jazz in recent years, but can't really play it, lol. I love Victor Wooten, Pat Metheny, Bela Fleck, Weather Report, Oz Not and many others. Lately I've only been playing with the band at my church each Sunday doing contemporary worship stuff. It's keeping me playing but I'd like to do more.
