ABOUT

I have played bass for nearly 30 years. I have taught bass for about 24 of those Years. I am looking for new bass students and new friends to play music together live or in studio. I have recorded projects from commercial jingles and church tracks, to full blown rock, pop, and r&b records with all the trimmings. I’m pretty chill and easy going. I would be interested in playing some in and around Tulsa. I’ve toured with several different bands, but I’m not really seeking that right now. It would have to be something really special to get me back on the road right now (I’m Looking at you JT ????). Just looking for some fun people to play bass with and have a great time.

Influences

I love to play and listen to all sorts of music. From stanky dirty funk, sultry R&B/Soul and obscure jazz tracks, to contemplative folk, Americana, and fun dance/pop tunes. I’m not into playing really heavy music. Although I do listen to heavier music once in a rare moon when the mood strikes me just right. I am a lifelong student of music and electric bass and hope to never stop learning new things and honing my craft.
