About Me

I play double bass, electric bass and a little piano. I play in several groups regularly: 2 big bands, 1 jazz octet, 1 jazz quintet and 1 symphony orchestra. I have a day job that's too boring to talk about. That's about it. Between work and music I have no time left for anything else.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

You.
