ABOUT

Started playing young. First played banjo, then as a teenager picked up rhythm guitar. Learned upright bass in adulthood and it is now my instrument of choice. Have recording experience, and extensive performance history. I have good people skills and have done booking, general PA set-up, operation and maintenance. Have also handled band-business dealing.
