I'm a freelance bass player, with experience in Musical Theatre, Cruise ship work and party bands. I have excellent reading skills, a great attention to detail and work well with others. I've worked in a whole host of different environments, from playing with Broadway star Laura Benanti on her one-woman-show, to band leading on cruise ships for multiple multi-month contracts.

Anything if it’s reading based

Need 3-4 13 amp power sockets and a parking space.
Information on location and load-in/out spaces would be appreciated.
I have my own bass equipment including amp, in-ears, iPad, pedal board etc.
Yes I can operate Spotify.
I performed with Tony-Award winning Laura Benanti, both for a month at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and subsequently in Soho, London. To work with someone of her stature was incredible. I also led a band of 6 on a cruise liner for 3 months that was regarded as the best band the fleet had ever seen, there was nothing we couldn’t play!
I love all sorts of events! Anything that gets the music playing.
I started in musical theatre. Am-Dram productions in local theatres around central Scotland. From there I just continued on my way, performed in bigger productions, did some cruise contracts and played in party bands too.
For bass specifically, people like James Jamerson, Marcus Miller and Victor Wooten. On the more general music scene, the likes of Quincy Jones, the pop icons, the rock legends and the funky maestros
I can play whenever for however long.
Yes as long as the weather is suitable or adequate cover is provided. Shade in the sun and cover in poorer weather.
