ABOUT

I'm currently looking to join a band as a bass guitarist. I have been playing the bass in bands for 15 years now, and have a wide range of experience playing in 2 bands previously.

I started playing with a covers band called 'The Basket Cases' for seven years when I was 14. This started as a Green Day covers band (until we got bored of constant Green Day) and eventually started to cover a range a songs from Heavy Rock to Indie. I then played with Bristol based Ska/Hip-Hop band 'Cut Capers' for about a year and half, where I had very memorable experiences such as recording the song 'Get Movin' (Feet Don't Fail Me Now) at Rockfield Studio in Monmouth, playing the same stage as Madness and performing at the Champions League Basketball Semi Finals in Istanbul.

In between my live experiences, I also have a BTEC in Music Performance whilst attending St. Brendan's Sixth Form College for 2 years, meeting some fantastic musicians and people along the way.
