I'm a sightreading session musician from South Wales. I recently graduated from university (ICMP) with a degree in in Contemporary Music Performance mastering in electric bass and piano.
I have a lot of experiece as I have dedicated my whole life to music.
I have played with a lot of bands in my career so far, spanning a lot of different styles including: rock, metal, progressive rock, jazz, swing, reggae, new age, country, latin, blues, and minimalist.
I have toured the U.K. 10 times, Europe twice, and have headlined the Brecon Jazz festival 4 times.
I have played in the musical scene with my biggest productions being: Greenday's American Idiot, Me & My Girl, Our House by Tim Firth, and Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds.
I currently play in four original bands, (Aspire, Parkview, Naomi Rae, Asha Jane), and a wedding and tribute band Velvet Soul.
I'm available for work and I'm happy to take on different roles.
I'm a trained performer, composer, arranger, musical director, and transcriber.
