Former session/touring/record label musician...RnR,RnB,Jazz,Funk,Boogie Woogie,Blues,British Rock, Texas Boogie & Swamp Music.
Project 1 - Looking for Drums & Bass (double would be nice)for Boogie band project - work waiting. Project 2 - join existing outfit playing Jazz/Funk/Blues. Project 3 - adding some classic Wurly/Hammond/rock n roll piano to Brit rock/boogie band.
Due to a shortage of Bass players some years ago, I trained my left hand to undertake the role with a midi key split, and frightening independence. This hand has now moved in with me and stolen my wife...but a least turns up to gigs and plays in time! This economic facility may be of interest to singer/songwriter/guitarists who may wish to augment their sound either live or on recording, and I am always interested to hear of such projects.

I play Keyboards, Bass and some guitar on all the audio edits. The drums are all programmed except 4, 9, and 12, which are real (Thank you Bernie Fox.
