ABOUT
NOT CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR A BAND
Originally piano/keys but took up bass at age seventeen and probably as much experience on both instruments now. Lots of vocal, BV and lead.
Good ear player, don't really sight-read but pretty good with theory and can score when necessary.
Gigs well into the thousands, fair amount of studio time on keys, bass and programming (lots of time with Cubase.)
