SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I'm a bass player looking for a working band. I have musical experience in a wide variety of performance situations in clubs, concerts, and recording. I play by ear and can sing backup. I look well on stage and don't stand there like a statue. The music is to be enjoyed and experienced, not just played note for note just like the recording! The important thing is to have a good solid and consistent drummer to work with and other seasoned musicians to work off of. This makes my job of making a band sound like one. I'm here to play music, entertain, and have fun!

Influences
There's too many over the years to count! There are a few: Paul McCartney, James Jamerson, Joe Osborn, Carol Kaye, Bob Bobbitt. I'm dating myself here, but these are some of the people played the basslines that started me down this road when I got my first bass in 1965. Truth be told, the music was always in my head ever since I could remember!
