About Me |
|
Welcome to my humble site, me, myself and I. Welcome all friends, visitors, muscians, the curious, those who walk proudly to the beat of another drummer, cool people. Here you can find out a little about myself, sample some of the music I had the pleasure of writing, arranging and performing on, also you can check out some of my photos. I am a bass player and I have played with a number of bands over the years, Sex On Tv....,Lust For Life, Party Akimbo, Glassoline and Bittersweet Manics. I am currently rock'n with Obsidian Arising. My bands have also had the pleasure of sharing the stanges with such diverse musical artist acts like Sarah Maclachlan, HR/bad brains, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Nothingface, Merideth Brooks, MC 900ft Jesus, LSD, Godhead, Beefeater, Lucy Brown, The Dead Milkman, Bonnie Rait, Hootie and the Blowfish, Queen Latifah, Natilie Merchant, 9353, Royal Cresant Mob, Michelle Shock, Sevendust, Seven Stories, New riders of the Purple Sage, Scream to name a few. I have been fortunate to have my music received airplay in the US, Canada, Europe, Japan, and Australia, as well as appeared in underground and indie films. I also had the pleasure of being featured in the July 2003 issue of Bass Player Magazine. I would like to thank my sponsors for their support, Rotosound Strings, XM Radio, Foxes Music, Dot and all the special people who have supported me and still do over the years.~~~~ My gear: 96' Fender Percision, 04' Fender Percision, 08' Music Man Stingray 5, 06' Music Man SUB5, 02' Takamine Acoustic Bass, Trinity Irish Bouzouki, Hartke 3500 Amplifier, Hartke Transporter 4x10 Cabinet, Fender Bassman 150, A host of Boss effect pedals.
