I'm an Australian musician, and I've played in rock bands, jazz bands, and classical ensembles all over the place. Here, I am just exploring the possibilities of the solo electric bass.
Do you play live?
Currently on top of my live performance moments is playing double bass in Tallin, to an audience of about 100,000 patriotic Estonians, with an orchestra of about 600 young players. Later in the day, a choir of about 20,000 members performed. Amazing..
Your influences?
Arvo Part, The Mars Volta, Jaco Pastorius, Arnold Schoenberg, Phillip Glass, John Cage, Pink Floyd, Palestrina, Bach, Metallica.
Favorite spot?

Equipment used:
Yamaha and Warwick electric basses, a Behringer amp and my Mac.
