ABOUT

AVAILABLE FOR DEPPING ON BASS, STICK BASS OR GUITAR AT SHORT NOTICE!!!

Since leaving Local Heroes in 2005 I have been playing electric double bass in Cut the Mustard with Martin Abrahams and Jon Ewen on drums. We have been playing since 2005 when we started a regular session in Porters in the Old Town, which we are still playing. We don’t rehearse we just find a good groove and go with it.

I also have depped often, on bass, stick bass or guitar, with many other musicians locally as and when asked. I am part of Hadyn Corrner’s ‘Pluto Flower Arranging Society’ playing electric guitar.

I have performed solo - which is totally different from any other experience I have had. I don’t consider myself as a solo artist but with a loop pedal along with others I give it a go. However, I prefer to work with other musicians.

I am open to any offers on guitar or bass even at very short notice. I prefer not to rehearse although I will if really necessary.

My bass style is solid and dependable and I work closely with the drummer or percussionist to find a solid groove. On guitar, either acoustic or electric, I am not really a solo guitar player so I tend to try to find a melodic rhythm part that adds to the overall song throughout. I use a lot of reverb, echo and swell with this. However, on occasion I will play a solo if the song requires it.
