ABOUT
In the 1990s, I misspent my youth in Brisbane playing bass, drums, and rhythm guitar (not at the same time) onstage and in the studio for various original material rock music projects.
Since moving to Sydney in 2006 I've concentrated on bass, I've recently played in a few rock/classic rock cover outfits and I think I like playing covers more in my declining, sunset years,
I am currently the bass player in During The Fall.
