I've played bass guitar in bands since university and have been living in Canada since 2005, where I played with a regular gigging band for about 5 years. Recently returned to the UK and would be into playing with others with eclectic tastes. Loved the wave of punk-inspired music of the 80s ,especially The Jam, The Cure and the Talking Heads. Later, I (re)discovered prog-rock greats like Jethro Tull and King Crimson and, later still, realized what a trove had been left by people like Curtis Mayfield and Parliament. Would love to play some funk-influenced rock but open to most styles.

Poor Curtis
Poor Curtis Year: 2017 Genre: Funk
This was constructed in Logic around a bass line idea. The bass, keyboards and some of the guitars are played by me. The other sounds are edited loops. The title refers to Curtis Mayfield and I tried to capture something of his high energy approach to songwriting here (nowhere near as good, of course).
