Double Bass + Electric Bass

I am a bassist from Des Moines, Iowa, now living and playing in Saffron Walden, Essex. With a background in jazz and classical music, I continued to evolve into a more versatile bassist while performing onboard Royal Caribbean Cruises. I currently play bass for Crimson Shadow, the Cheesy Chips, Darren Stammers, and James White and the Wild Fire. I also lead the bass section for the Saffron Walden Symphony Orchestra.
