SEEKING

ABOUT

I’m an experienced, creative melodic, bassist with gigging, festival & studio experience looking for my next project and/or Session/Dep work.

Ideally I’d like to join a focused, success hungry originals project who are looking for that person who can come in with that extra creative spark and lift their songs & live performances to the next level - finding the extra 20% that turns great existing work into amazing work is my strongest skill.

But, honestly, I’m happy to get in a room & try out for anything including covers, tribute, function or even “Just for fun” bands - so long as I’m kept busy and I’m playing with chilled people who are focused on music, I’m happy.

I can play in any style and am comfortable playing any genre though I’m not a huge fan of metal.

Check out the eclectic range of recordings & videos here on my profile to hear my versatility.

I can sing backing vocals or very reluctant lead vocals.

I have high quality pro gear, my own transport and lots of time, energy & focus for the right projects.
