SEEKING
Acoustic Guitar, Violin, Keyboard, Piano, Mandolin, Dobro, Steel guitar, Cello.ABOUT
Looking for song writing collaboration opportunities. My writing style is light Americana/acoustic (the Ashland video on this page is a good example) but keen to expand on that and am open/receptive to all genres
Versatile bass/double bass player, also play guitar and can sing, looking for 'interesting' opportunities. Seeking musicians to work with rather than a 'band to join'. Have plenty of commitments . . . but always on the look-out for one off gigs or occasional interesting projects. Well experienced in blues/swing/jazz & folk (all with double bass) and rock 'n' roll style electric blues & general covers/function sets on electric bass. Able to 'turn up and play' if required.
If you need bass - I am your man!!!
**NOW Available: REMOTE RECORDING: if you want to enhance your recorded tracks with double bass (or electric for that matter) I can now offer recording packages via WAV supplied files. Speedy and flexible service - you send me your original recording and I will return a bass track (or tracks) for you to choose from. When you have chosen or confirmed that you are happy, I will supply a full quality WAV file for you to import either to your own studio environment. All styles covered.
Also experienced enough in acoustic guitar for live acoustic gigs.
Changes in work scheduling has meant I have some free space in the diary for 2017, so trying to fill gaps where I can.
Been on the local scene for 30 years plus with various bands. Plenty of experience in live and studio work.
Good bv's.
