Experienced Bass Player/Music Lover looking for a band or other like-minded musicians looking to form one. Started playing at 16, had a gigging, original hard rock band in the SF Bay Area (back in 'the day')... Typical break-up story leading to a career and family, then back to music. Would love to find a group of talented, creative people looking to do something more entertaining than a pop cover band. I like to play music with a strong groove that people can't help but move to: nu funk, heavy funk, New Orleans funk, 80's rock turned into funk(?!), punk funk, R&B, hip-hop, alternative... what am I leaving out?
Inspirations/aspirations: Dumpstaphunk, James Brown, Trombone Shorty, Neville Brothers, Chili Peppers, Fishbone, Tom Morello, Jamiroquai, Earth, Wind and Fire, Beyonce, Pimps of Joytime, ZZ Ward, Speedometer, Raconteurs, Prince, Vulfpeck, Phat Phunktion, Adi Oasis, Scary Pockets, Jane's Addiction, Incubus, The Black Crowes...
