HELLO from The Mulf!

I am a busy professional bass player based in London. My professional career of 39 years covers all aspects of popular music including Touring, Recording, Television, Theatre work and Gigs. This website gives an overview of my credits, the equipment I use and news.

LATEST NEWS.

2024 was a great year, the Disco Prom in July at the Albert Hall, some Festivals with the Queen of Soul Beverley Knight (subbing for the incredible Dave Troke) playing on the 'Songs' sessions for the new Disney Snow White movie at Air Studios and a ton of great Gigs and Theatre Deps. 

Theatre Shows included Lion King, Mamma Mia, Moulin Rouge, Mrs Doubtfire, a new production Devil Wears Prada and I had to say goodbye to an incredibly enjoyable Show Standing at the Sky'd Edge. A big thank you to Steve Price, Malcolm Moore, Ruben Ramos Medina, Oliver Poschmann, Richard Coughlan and Phil Donnelley for trusting me with the dates.

Other fun Gigs were with my Thunderthumbs ensemble, Reach For It, the George Duke Tribute, Fire with Erwin Keiles, a deputy or two with Triple H Horns/Soul and Funk Time Machine and quite a few other great Bands.

2025 hasn't slowed down much and from the third week of January until the middle of March was incredibly busy. Two visits to Air Studios for some TV dates, an album at Temple Music Studios as well as some home sessions, quite a few tracks and a Cartoon Series for the BBC. A Gig with Paprika Soul, a recording Band for 20 years up until it's recent appearance at the Cotswolds Soul weekender was fun and it was so great to see and play with my long time friend and ace guitarist Malcolm Macfarlane. 

Next up is the re-release of The Boaters Project. See the 'Group Projects' folder here.
