Experienced bass player available covers only

Paid bar gigs, weddings and corporate functions.

Ideally wanting a band already gigging that needs a replacement, but would also be keen on an experienced, mature group of performers (ie drummer, singer and guitarist) who are close to gigging and want to build something great. Not keen to work with beginners at this stage, sorry 'bout that.

I can offer:

– 25 plus years performing experience - ex Old School Road (Originals), The Shebangs (covers) plus 10 or 20 more :)
– Solid grooves that lock in with the drummer – I play with both a pick and fingers for variety.
– Basic backing vocals.
– Awesome rig (Fender Jazz, Orange 1000 watt terrorbass, Markbass 800 watt light quad).
– Great communications skills (websites, social media, blogging - former communications officer in the real world).
– Own transport, no drug habit and willing to dress up, or down, for events.
