SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Currently studying music in university, primarily jazz on electric bass study but really that entails anything. Love playing jazz, rnb, hip-hop, rock, alternative, indie, psychedelic, free stuff, pretty much anything. I'm a bassist, here for laying down the groove and doing whatever the sound wants. Also intermediate on guitar and beginner on piano. Would love to get gigging with some people!

Influences
This list could go on and on but I love some Pino Palladino/D'angelo stuff, Sam Wilkes who plays with Louis Cole is great, been loving Black Midi and Black Country, New Road recently. Got heavy in Yussef Dayes stuff a while, love Kendrick, Tribe Called Quest, Erykah Badu. Other stuff like Jeff Buckley, Fiona Apple and also had big phases of MBV and smashing pumpkins. Other bassists like Mono Neon and Jaco are pretty much a given, and love some jazz artists like Wayne Shorter, Miles, Monk and Freddie Hubbard. Minecraft soundtrack goes hard
