ABOUT

Been playing bass most of my life. I’ve played in several bands and gigged extensively in my 20s and again in my late 30s. Past few years, life has gotten in the way but things have evened out and I would like to start gigging again. Can occasionally do some out of town stuff but not available for long tours.

Im a pretty laid back guy and can get along with most people-though I am a bit of an introvert.

I hate that I’m only allowed to select four genres of music that interest me. I love all music; from Slayer to Notorious B.I.G to Hank Williams to Thelonius Monk to Merle Haggard to the Grateful Dead to Iron Maiden to Rush to Black Sabbath to The Specials to Amy Winehouse to Blink 182 to The Beltones to Judas Priest to....everything. I love it all and will play anything.

Influences

Bass player influences are many. But to name a few I really look up to; Cliff Burton, Jaco, Stu Hamm, Steve Harris, Charles Mingus, Les Claypool, John Onder, Lemmy, Aaron Barrett, Phil Lesh, Geezer Butler, Duck Dunn, Carol Kaye, James Jamerson, etc. I could go on and on about bass players.
