ABOUT

Calgary-based bass guitarist looking to make new connections in the local music scene. I have classical music training and experience with writing, recording & performing.

I've been playing music in some form for most of my life. Several years back in Edmonton I recorded 3 original CD's with various punk, rock & metal bands and had dozens of gigs. These days I'm interested in jamming for fun and doing the occasional show.

I own professional equipment and a PA system for small- to mid-size gigs. I'm looking for a casual band who needs a solid bass guitarist. I can also provide backup vocals. I'm comfortable with finger-plucking, picking and slap & pop styles.
