Bass Guitar.

ABOUT

Presently play guitar in 4-peice alt rock band Copperworm (having previously played bass); the 4 = guitar/vox, guitar [me], bass, drums. Copperworm's first album was released 24-03-2023 called PiLOT; a new release should be out soon, made up of live recordings at Matchbox Studios, title TBA but out soon ... honest! Find us on Spotify, Bandcamp, Apple, Deezer, YouTube, etc.

I also play guitar in rock covers band Electric Outlawz and our alter ego Acoustic Outlawz (same band but "MTV Unplugged" style).

Also founder and guitarist in rock band Atakarma Giants, but the band is currently "on hold" for various reasons.

Also play bass and guitar in worship bands.
