About me:
..
I am a bass player from Melbourne (originally Sydney) Australia. I have spent most of the past 12 years touring oz gigging and recording with a whole bunch of artists, mainly in the 'Blues and Roots' scene.
Some people who i've worked with include: Jeff Lang, Matt Walker, Xavier Rudd, Chris Whitley, Kevin Borich, Dave Graney, Chain, Those Bloody Mckennas, Tim Hall, Ash Grunwald, Mia Dyson, Abbie Cardwell, Third Degree, Darren Jack, Jordie Lane, Anne Mcue, Jen Cloher, Michael Spiby, Ray Beadle, Phil Manning, Broderick Smith, Downhills Home, Fats Wah Wah, Emily Ulman, Louisville Sluggers, Corrina Steele, Backwood Creatures, D Henry Fenton, CWQ, Mal Eastick, Jimmi Hocking, Lloyd Spiegal, Phil Emmanuel and a stack of others.
Who I'd like to meet: The hippy who decided to take my beloved '66 precision bass out of its case (unbeknownst to me) after a gig with Jeff Lang backstage at The Rev, in Brisbane and scrawl illegible hippy slogans in thick black marker pen all over the back of it!! Thanks for the "good vibes" dickhead!
Since you guys are my friends I though you might want to check out the hot new Vagrants vids from the recent Hi Fi Bar gig http://www.youtube.com/thevagrants
