Influences
I'm more of a traditional rock/hard rock bassist influenced and inspired by Jack Bruce, John Paul Jones, Geddy Lee, Geezer Butler, Paul McCartney & John Entwistle.....all of whom are/were very melodic bassists. Also, I'm a big fan of Hendrix, SRV, AC/DC,
the Cult, Black Sabbath, Cream, STP, Alice in Chains, CSN&Y and Led Zeppelin.
