My band is me... I write and play and record everything.Band/artist history
I have played in bands for many years... Motown, Disco, Rock, Country, Country Rock, Bluegrass, Texas Swing, Southern Gospel... just to name a few. Most were strictly cover bands. I have also sung in many choruses and choirs over the years. Today I pull from all my resources, as they are what have made me what I yam.Have you performed in front of an audience?At the current time I do not play solo, however, my REAL BAND R-JET has a band page here on SoundClick [see soundclick.com/rjet] I do play locally in a cover band- Fifty/50 [see thefifty50band.com] and accompany a Southern Gospel Quartet- The Trinity Laymen on acoustic bass [along with a fine piano player].
Your musical influences
It all started with the Beatles, the Kinks and the Rolling Stones. I was a young, misguided lad pursuing interests in the trumpet and then tuba [yes, I was a concert band nerd]. Listening to the afore mentioned bands I decided to radically change my musical path. Dad bought me a Danelectro Guitar & a Princeton [tweed] amp for Christmas- then early the next year our local musical instrument dealer convinced me that greater opporitunities (everybody plays guitar) for band work lay with bass players -so- I bought an Epiphone bass/Ampeg B-15N amp dealy and boned-up on Paul McCartney & Bill Wyman; Neil Young entered the picture a some time later [thanks Joey], then the Allman Brothers and ZZ Top and I was off cruising...What equipment do you use?
