I am a Nashville-based bass player that has played on several platinum albums and singles as well as Grammy and Emmy winning songs. You might have heard me on a country song like Girl Crush or Pontoon by Little Big Town or on a singer-songwriter song by Matt Nathanson or Juliana Hatfield. I love my job, and I hope that it is evident in my playing.

John is as patient as he is talented. I accidentally gave him some bad info on the song we were working on, and he was able to understand the issue and address it quickly. Such a good dude!
