Life Crisis
About Me
Life Crisis bass player since the start of the life crisis project 5 years ago. Met Ian through erstwhile drummer Dave 'Raznofsky' Race who I used to go to school / play in bands with. Wasn't really looking to join a band at the time because of the impending arrival of my first born Luke, but I was persuaded and the rest is history! Enjoying it - playing with some class musicians, a fulfilling, if not sometimes frustrating experience, its great to be part of a likeminded group of people improving measurably over the time we have been going. Hope to see you at a gig sometime soon!
