Chinaman
No band, just me.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I started playing bass in grade 10 and switched to guitar by mid-semester because I couldn't find guitar players who wanted to play what I was interested in... About 20 years ago I was contacted by an ex-coworker who wanted me to play guitar on an album she was recording. That project was never completed but during the sessions I became friends with her producer/studio owner. I was invited to come hang out and learn more about production and maybe get the chance to jump in on some recording sessions... I ended up becoming the studio session guitarist and I'm still doing it today.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I've filled in for guitarists of various bands for a gig or two, and I was the rhythm guitarist for a showcase concert. Other than that, I just play in the studio or by myself.
Your musical influences
I listen to mostly rock and blues, but there are some things that I like in almost all kinds of music.
What equipment do you use?
These days my setup is very simple because my studio room was turned into a bedroom... Guitar to Behringer UMC22 audio interface to laptop.
Anything else?
Most of these recordings are old but I hope you find something you like... I'm open to working with anyone. Any genre, doesn't matter.
