I am the bassist for Lone Wolf James. Like so many others, I was inspired to take up the guitar after hearing Led Zeppelin for the first time. It didn't take me long to move to bass where I could combine my sense of rhythm with melodic expression.

My style of playing features a good dose of syncopation and funk. I go for a fat, round, punchy sound a la John Paul Jones.
