Luke Ward - Bassist for Hire

About Me

I am a practising bassist and musician, hailing from Berkshire.I currently play & write for a few local and up and coming acts, including Science Murders Dreams, and Natalie Long. I am available for Deps and gigs, and I am comfortable with orignals and cover material. I am a fast learner and I take pride in my playing so if you need a stand-in bassist, get in touch!
