ABOUT

I live in Tamworth. I have been playing bass in live bands for many years, mostly covers in pubs and clubs etc. I'm currently in a long established AC/DC Bon Scott era tribute show as well as a local covers band. I'm easy to get along with, love a laugh, cant stand drama, I very rarely say no to a gig, and I have my own reliable transport. I'm no stranger to travel, for the tribute show I drive 3 to 5 hours each way for gigs. No problem, I love it :) I'm happy with the two bands I'm currently in so I'm not actively seeking to join any other bands but hey, if a good offer were to come along I'd consider it so contact me if you're after a rock bass player and we'll have a chat. Cheers!
