About Me

Hi, i am Josh. not to be confused with other Joshs (there are a lot of us). I play in some bands around Melbourne town! Look in the 'Members' section and check them out some time!

I really enjoy listening to Brian Blade's Drumming. I also like looking at paintings that look life like and dramatic, imagining what it would be like to drive an F1 car, wondering why some people can't think critically about their own ethics and morals whilst trying to constantly improve my own, and discovering new things which make me realise how little i actually know. At the moment i am reading 'The Day After Roswell'.

I was born in Brisbane, Australia. Moved to Melbourne, Aus in 1990. JUST FINISHED!!!! at the Victorian College of the Arts (Improvisation Stream). I play bass. Upright, electric, and hopefully soon, an electric upright!?!?!
