Hi,
Experienced bass guitar player and back up singer for over 40 years.
Available for fill-in arrangements, short term projects, recording services, or if the right group comes along then I am open to more long term commitments.
Over many years I have performed in a mix of pubs, night clubs, community events, weddings and other private functions. I have performed mainly in medium to large size bands, duo and trio’s. Over the years I have performed many venues ranging in size from small intimate settings to full scale outdoor festival events.
I have a good understanding of music theory, production and the dynamics of song structures that make or break the delivery of a performance. The majority of my music life has been performing covers, and recently working alongside artists with original songs that I helped record and are now professionally produced and being performed.
I am always professional in my music commitments, I work well with equally committed and dedicated artists and musicians.
