ABOUT
Professional music with donkeys years of experience of gigging. Everything from 2 piece outfits to large 30 piece ensembles. I have over 20 years experience of playing in musicals too. I read music and am a very capable busker / improviser. Instruments include Bass Guitar, some rhythm guitar, keyboards, backing vocals, and euphonium [there is nothing in the profile to select this as one of my instruments. It looks like a small tuba, plays like a trumpet, and sounds like a trombone!]
Oh..and I like to fiddle around with remixing and re-writes (ie using just vocal stems to write original music behind - some in my audio files)

Influences
I like all music but tend not to be too excited about copying it. I prefer to lend my own style to playing, sort of a mix of bass and countermelodic stuff. Unless I'm told that is to keep it two to a bar! The music I listen to changes from week to week, but always have a permanent slot for my passion - opera
