Influences
Pretty much anything and everything! I was around during the punk era and was into many of those bands - this is when I first picked up a bass guitar (punk meant anyone could do it then!). I was also listening to Bowie, the Stones, Kinks, Beatles, The Who etc etc. I also enjoyed listening to those prog bands like Genesis, Yes, Soft Machine etc. I was also quite keen on modern jazz, Weather Report, the 'Blue Note' artists. More recently elbow have tickled my fancy, but my main influence overall I guess would be rock.
