MySpacea place for friends

I'm a musician from Vancouver, BC.

I've worked mostly as an electric bass player, having performed on-stage and in-studio with a wide variety of artists and musical styles.

I started out as a drummer at age 10 in my dad's bands playing things like Neil Young and the Allman Brothers. I started playing bass in high-school and got into jazz and soul music. I played in blues bands and rock bands every weekend and just never stopped playing. The thing about bass-players is that there doesn't seem to be that many around, so it's easy to keep busy doing just about any kind of music you can think of.

At the moment I'm playing with pop-country singer Jessie Farrell. Stay tuned here to find out about the tours and goings-on, or check her out at www.jessiefarrell.com.

Up to this point I've had the pleasure of performing with artists like Juno Award-winning jazz man Hugh Fraser, songwriter/producer Dallas Budd, hip-hop ingénue Kia Kadiri, Ben Rogers, Stephen Franke, Rebecca Everett, and a whole mess of others. In 2004 I completed a B.A. in Music from the University of British Columbia where I focused on Jazz, Latin American music, Film Music, and arranging/orchestration.

In addition to playing the bass I have written and produced music for some short films and multimedia projects, and I've served as musical director/arranger in a number of live and studio projects. I love staying busy and playing tons of different kinds of music. I'm always up for working with talented artists and producers, so contact me if you have a project you would like me to be involved in.

I'll be touring with Jessie Farrell and playing gigs in Vancouver and beyond with other folks, so check back for updates from here and abroad!
