About Me: I have been playing the bass for a few years now, and before that I played rhythm guitar for 6 years and violin before that. I also spent over 10 years as a professional DJ, touring as far as the US and Hong Kong, so performing to audiences is not a problem, although I haven't performed live on an instrument for some time. I studied Commercial Music Technology for 3 years and I am a freelance web & graphic designer by trade.
As a designer I am part of the One Trick Pony Design Collective and we managed by Raw Power Management, who also manage te likes of Iron Maiden, The Gallows, Funeral For A Friend, Bullet For My Valentine, Lethal Bizzle etc and thus I have extensive links through them.

Why I'm Here: I'm looking to start or join a rock, metal, emo, punk or ska band with serious ambition.

Influences:

Alexisonfire, Bullet For My Valentine, Biffy Clyro, Bloc Party, Funeral For A Friend, Fightstar, Elliot Minor, No Doubt, Garbage, New Young Pony Club, Amy Winehouse, Cancer Bats, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Portishead etc.

I currently listen to a lot of Biffy Clyro, Funeral For A Friend, Bloc Party, Incubus, Bullet For My Valentine, Pearl Jam, Silverstein, Muse, Sugar, Stone Temple Pilots etc

Equipment List:

Tanglewood 4 String Bass (my baby!), Decent practice amp, Meequaliser, Apple MacBook Pro running Logic, Plenty of ideas, Industry contacts.
