SEEKING

ABOUT

Experienced bass guitarist seeking experienced band covers or original music band. My last band was an original music reggae ska band. Before that a rock covers band.

I have my own original music solo and band project. But having started out as a bass guitarist and greatly enjoy playing bass, I'd like also to play out with a working band who needs a good bass guitarist to learn the pad quickly and fit in easily. I can do bv's and lead vocals (but would prefer to concentrate on working with your drummer).

Self-employed, I'm my own boss, so for an interesting project, I can be available to suit (including touring).

I spent 25 years managing and singer/guitarist for a major London functions covers band The BashBand.
