SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a bass player looking for some more variety, Blues Clasic Rock country and what ever can be thrown my way. I have played in Blues Bands, Instramental Surf, band, Rock bands, and good old Bar Bands! I am not looking to gig every weekend, maybe a couple of weekends a month. Payed to play is more like an option, it is not necessary! Music is my hobby and not my profession.

Influences
Grew up in the 70s and had a lot of influence from some of the great bands from the 70s. Too many to name. Dick Dale, Los Straight Jackets, Link Wray, Stevie Ray, and all of the heavier bands such as Led Zep, The Who, Hendrix, Cream, and the list goes on and on. I was born and raised in St Louis for 44 years, so there is a lot of blues infuence in my music interest also. I have been very fortunate that some of my latest projects have been playing covers by Popa Chubby, Tab Benoit, Jimmy Thackery, and Stevie Ray Vaughn to name a few.

Multiple basses and amplification! I like to reach for the perfect sound! From fretless to fretted. From Flats to Rounds. From Blues to Classic Rock, to country and everything in between.
