I started playing bass when I was about 13 because my cousin was taking guitar lessons. Aside from a brief dalliance with weed and theater, it was my only real interest until I went to college. I never learned to read properly. Probably should have. I did play in a lot of bands, though. Had my first gig as a freshman in high school. I gave up music when I was in my early 30s, only to pick it up again in my early 40s. Then I spent a decade writing and recording with my friends as Endless Blue: West Bend, Wisconsin's best (and only) trip hop group. Aside from recording in the home studio, we did fun little gigs on the outdoor patios of our favorite bars and restaurants in town. Occasionally we got a hipper gig in Milwaukee. On even rarer occasions we opened for a big group in Minneapolis. That gig seemed over when two of the four of us moved to California. But now I have moved to Cali! So we're back in business. I have also done local theater pit gigs.
