    Influences and Teachers:
    Have had lessons with David Potts in Sydney. When I was young Brian Ritchies acoustic bass guitar playing on the violent femmes first album. Miloslav Gajdos, Charlie Haden, I love his versatility and the wide cross section of music he has played. I listen to everything from industrial noise to classical music. As a writer I dont think I am influenced by anyone but as a player I am in awe of the guys and gals who make it all look super easy on any instrument.

    Motorcycling, writing, travel

    I have run music workshops for people with disabilities as well as teaching from a music school.

    I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my Grandfather. Not screaming in terror like his passengers.
