About Me |
|
Welcome! I'm a Bassist/Synthesist heavily influenced and inspired by the likes of: Matt Malley (Mr.Dog, Counting Crows, The Auroras) Charles Meeks (Chuck Mangione) Geddy Lee, Pino Palladino, Patrick O’Hearn And of course… Lydia Holly (Oberheim Queen of "Mr. Dog") Rupert Greenall (PPG Synth master of “The Fixx”) But as of late... Debbie Shair of Heart and MARIZANE Over many years, I've been involved in countless Bay Area bands, but am probably best known as “the guy with the big hair” in the 80’s alternative rock band “Mystery Farmer”. It was during this period that I began pursuing a growing interest in Synthesizers. My current collection contains some pretty fun pieces of vintage synthesizers. I've traveled to the U.K on more than one occasion (first as an attendee then as a guest speaker) specifically to meet with an elite group of Synthesizer designers, programmers and users.
