About Me

I'm a 23-year old chap who was born in Houston, Texas, now living in Perth, Western Australia! I only picked up the bass and began playing music when I was 16, however I've been exposed to a heap of music throughout my whole life, growing up to the sounds of my dad playing everything from classical stuff through to The Police, through to Paul Simon, through to Miles Davis...Although most of my time is taken up studying law (yikes!), I try to fit in as much jamming and gigging around Perth as is possible, whether in a band or solo...A few of the bands, artists and projects I've performed or recorded for include:Shifty Translation;Finatik (Rebel Rock Entertainment/Atlantic Records);Frosty Boy;The Ben Gray Band;IZUM;Dave Anderson;Georgia McDonnell-Adams;Boogie Smash (HEDaK Crew)OPT;Absynth (formerly known as Udon Takeshi);Paul Malone & Moneyshot; and@Large.**I am also a proud supporter and endorsee of the Lo-Han-Kuo Beverage.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
