ABOUT

Hello, My name is Nick. I am a bass player with around 10 years of playing experience and around 8 years of gigging experience with the help of a music degree. I haven't gigged for about a year now, but I am looking to re-start gigging and join one or two bands. Previous experience includes lots of gigs within the progressive metal scene, but learned my craft as an RnB/soul bass player which I thoroughly enjoyed. I am enthusiastic about many genres, but I am mainly looking to join bands or work with artists of RnB and Soul/Funk influences. I love playing metal and rock and would also jump at the chance of playing these styles as well.
