Ok so the new band didn't happen. Was a lot of different circumstances that met in the middle to create a moat around the chance to get anything done. Don't be fooled by that though. I will be getting back onto the hiring line so to speak.

I'm just a muso who is passionate about music. I love performing and writing and would do this full time if it paid the bills. (Dammed reality) I play Bass mainly but do a bit of playing around on guitar as well.
I play live in two bands. Quadraphonic, which is a covers band with a few originals and Boxcar Bown which is an all original Blues rock band.
Then there is the studio side of my music. Gone WIld has released two albums, the second being a double album.
I am also recording a solo album. This is a labour of love for me and when the studio is built I'll be getting back into it.

Why this name?
No band here. It's all me
Do you play live?
No except with the bands I'm in. Doubt I'd have the courage to perform live and solo. I'm a bit shy.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The net has been a godsend for musicians. There is so much out there that I would not have had the fortune to hear........make that experience.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes but the music would not change.
Band History:
I've played in a number of bands. Currently playing in Quadraphonic with Rob Smith and have formed another one. We finally came up with a name. Boxcar Brown.
Your influences?
Classic Rock, Blues, Jazz, Delta Blues.
I love slide guitar.

Favorite spot?
New Plymouth New Zealand. My home town. Awesome place.
Equipment used:
Fender P Bass, Fender Jaguar Bass, Fender V24 5 string Jazz Bass, Diplomat semi acoustic Bass (got that when I was 12), Epiphone EBO SG bass, Samic Electric acoustic, Applause Elecrtic acoustic. Johnson single cone resonator. Berringer 300W head, 2 x 10" cab, 1 x 15" cab. Some effects.. Anyone else's guitar amp. (Must get one)- Actually just bought a 15W Vox Pathfinder. Wicked little amp. Also have a new jazz bass now. A Sinjin fretless bass. Niiiiice too. You'll be hearing it on the solo album. Then there's the Fender Strat.
Anything else...?
Well yes. I didn't have a platform to share my music untill Soundclick. (thanks guys) Now I have a few efforts out there

and I feel great about it. Quite the good feeling knowing someone out there enjoys what I do.
There is also an album out that has made me a happy lad. GONE WILD is a rock band that you might like to check out.

I'd love to know what you think.
We have now finished a second album. GONE WILD II. A double album.
Now that's done I'll be working full time (sort of) on my solo effort. The title is "Solo & Friends - A Walk in my Shoes".
