ABOUT

I am a veteran bassist with over 40 year's experience and have performed rock, jazz, country, original compositions and eclectic hits from the 20's - 80's including ballroom music on cruise ship. I have also played guitar off and on my entire life, but it has always taken a back seat to the bass. I have started taking guitar move seriously, and have developed stage-worthy skills.

Currently, I am in a duo with an acoustic guitar singer song-writer. This is very casual, but allows me to continue to develop electric and lead guitar skills.

I am also considering the creating/joining a jazz oriented group. Would like to include original material and not just play covers.

I am open to discussing any opportunities, for the right situation, compromises can be made.
