ABOUT
Currently playing bass with Jody And The Jerms, gigging and recording great indie-pop originals. Also record covers for my youtube channel (youtube/SamHutchinsonBass). I've been playing bass since 2014 and passed grade 7 during 2020.
I have basic piano/keyboard experience from when I was younger. It's given me a foundation knowledge of music theory which has helped speed up my progress on the bass.
