ABOUT

Bassist, engineer, producer. I'm well traveled. My tastes lean to jazzy/funky/danceable material. For the last few years ( pre - Covid ) I've been in Vegas bands covering a wide range from Foo Fighters to Taylor Swift, with Covid I built a studio ( my second ) and pivoted to recording and mixing.

I'm interested in working with original artists on recording projects and I would love to put together a 5 to 7 piece band playing swinging, grooving and choice cuts of songs you've heard.
I also like trio's.

My goals for 2023 are to open a new mix room in Winnipeg, find a fab artist to collaborate / produce with and be in a band that plays music I like a few nights a month.

Influences

Always a really tough question, lately a lot of 50's and 60's jazz and modern funk on my playlist, but for influences here you go, in no real order, John Lee Hooker, Ray Charles, most of the Motown & Muscle Shoals stuff, Stones, Beatles. Later influences include Jeff Beck, Doobie Brothers, ZZ Top, Little Feat, Steely Dan, Robben Ford, Crusaders, Steve Earle, ARC Angels and on and on and on with groovy stuff. No Rush please. ( all due respect ! )
