Double Bass (upright, bass fiddle) player; plus nylon string guitar, violin and Celtic harp. Do NOT play bass guitar. Very experienced in all genres of music, except classical. Long-term semi-professional player. Can busk or sight read. Interested in any collaborative opportunity of quality which gives the chance for further development, creating something of value and which others want to listen to. With my close friend Karen (percussionist, drums, conga, bongos, shakers, etc.) we are available as the Rhythm Rascals.
