About Me

I started learning electric bass at age 15. Initially heavily influenced by the heavy metal of the time! After the excellent tutoring of Strongheart's Bill "Bassman" Evans I diversified more in to jazz, funk and blues. For many reasons that i won't go in to i stopped playing for 8 years, i have been back on the scene for just over a year now and am loving every minute. I currently play in the Robin Hoare band and when schedules permit with The Eloise Short Quartet. I've always wanted to write an album of just solo bass, the boss rc50 pedal allowed me to write what i could always hear. These tracks are from my forthcoming album "All that we see".Stay blessed Danny
