Solid intermediate level bassist with plenty of gigging and touring experience, now looking for an interesting original project to get my teeth into after a years rest. I’m looking for anything that has a funky interesting rhythmic vibe, ideally with an alt edge.
I’m strictly hobby (I have a day job) but this is an important passion for me and I can dedicate time to composition, weekly rehearsals and gigs. I’m super reliable, easy going, a good sense of humour (I think!), good quality kit and happy to dedicate holiday time to festivals and mini touring.
Probably easier to say what wouldn’t tickle my pickle which includes - covers/tribute bands, straight punk, straight metal, classic rock, folk, country or Christian Contemporary (whatever that is)
