About Me

Greetings myspace people. My name is Mike Claiborne and I am a bass player in Nashville, TN. I have been a musician for about thirty years.
I have tons of professional experience playing most musical styles – rock, jazz, country, r&b, gospel, blues, funk, fusion, latin, etc.
Some of the artists and bands that I work with are Nashville's best showband The Bluetones, the outstanding Celebration Of Life Choir, my favorite R&B Gospel singer Wess Morgan, Mod artist and vocalist extraordinaire Britt Savage, country/rock artists and singer/songwriters Mike Robinson and Lane Turner, guitar virtuosos Stan Lassiter and Tim Thompson.
I am also involved with Creation Audio Labs, a company that I co-found in 2003. We design and manufacture innovative products for discriminating musicians and engineers.
Thanks for your interest. I look forward to hearing from you!
