I started playing
bass professionally in the early 80’s. I have been told that my bass playing makes a bass guitar, (which is a support instrument) into a full-fledged solo vehicle. My innovative slapping
style, speed and technique emphasizes low, mid and high frequencies. Utilizing a double-thumping technique which uses the thumb to strike the string both downwards and upwards similar to a
guitar pick. I utilize all these techniques to achieve an amazing array of sounds during live performances. I can function as a bass player in a band and also as a bass soloist.
