I've reinstated free downloads on all the tracks from the Myspace player and the Reverb Nation player, so grab 'em now before I change my mind!

If you like bass pics please join my group "MyBass" at http://groups.myspace.com/mybassgroup. Post pics of your bass(es) there and check out the photo gallery!

I play bass guitar for a couple of different bands. At the moment I'm with the jazz band Close Quarters (www.closequarters.org.uk) and the worship team at St. Julian's Baptist Church in Newport, South Wales (www.sjbaptist.com). I also very rarely like to play a short solo bass set, this is something I'm trying to expand.....watch this space!

In the past I've played for a variety of rock bands including 3rd Day Rising and Third World Cafe.

The tracks I've uploaded are solo or duo (or even trio) bass compositions that I have recorded at home using my Status S2 Classic six-string bass and the Apple software Garageband. I'm currently working on putting together a set of tracks that I can play live as a soloist, using loops and effects, so I'm replacing some of the tracks here with new pieces from that set. The first of these is "Sleeping Planet", there's also a video of me playing that track live in my videos.

Sign up to my blog if you want to be notified when I post new tracks.

Enjoy!

Chasing Shadows





Jun 11 2008 12:40 PM

The ghosts that haunt me are the ones of my own creation. They are not the primordial monsters that have been passed down from generation to generation, but the abandoned dream, the forgotten plans the broken promises that I have made for myself. The leave me forever chasing shadows, trying to recover what I've lost.


Ghost’s of yesterday’s memories
Taunting, broken, empty dreams
Left for granted many years ago
Haunting, distant, fading screams
Another age, ideals time forgot
Corroding, rusted, lost conceptions
Aborted, tossed casually away
Eroding, decayed, blind perceptions

Well hello Andy,
long time, no see. Couldn't make the last club meet but I sure hope to be there for the Jim Lampi evening. I know you're a Chapman stick fan so hope to see you on the 25th.
Good health,
Dale

Howdy, we just posted a new tune, come on by and give it a listen. The tune's a scratch, we have plans to do a studio version. Let us know if you think it's worth the effort.
