Bass player with 40 years experience. Played professionally for 13 years doing bar gigs, concert touring, studio (including two albums). Then concentrated on a career as a photographer as well as journalism. Continued to play for myself but no bands, since the hours competed with my photo career. Got back into bands about 7 years ago doing bar/club gigs, festivals and concerts as well a some recording. Now semi retired and interested in playing out more or studio work.
