About
I'm a musician out of Alexandria. I've been gigging steadily over the last 20 years, doing genres such as Blues, Rock, Top 40, Jazz, Swing, Country, R&B, Funk, Soul, Reggae, Acoustic, Folk, and more. My main instrument is bass and that's the instrument I am most competent at, but I can hold my own on guitar. I can also do some vocals, lead and background, as well as play a little drums, little keyboard, and some harmonica. I'm available for sub gigs, regular gigs, and recording sessions. If you need someone for studio or field recording, as well as a soundman with a robust PA, I can also do that.

Influences
James Jamerson, Duck Dunn, Larry Graham, Bootsy Collins, Jimmy Nolen, Jimi Hendrix, Prince, Scott Ian, Albert King, and too many others to list them all. I love music!
Equipment List
I have enough equipment to piss off my wife and make her question my sanity. Plenty of bass and guitar gear, some drums, a keyboard, and plenty of PA and recording stuff. Yes, I suffer from GAS.
