ABOUT

I have played Bass Guitar for over 45 years and played my first gig in 1971. Also play acoustic/electric guitar. Now try to write and record songs. Have small project studio capable of producing decent demos. Interested in gigging with covers bands or if you want to come and sing/play on my tracks or just write stuff together and see where it leads, get in touch. Also currently play Bass in Trespass, a folk/jazz/rock band.
