Bass player, skillful and experienced in various genres and venues. If studio is my house, than stage is my backyard!
I've been playing on bass for almost 20 years in various bands, genres, with different musicians. Now, I am in the band RedsCool. So, I've grabbed a lot of experience while touring or during record sessions. I shared the stage with the bands: Dream Theater, Whitesnake, Rage, Vader, Decapitated, etc. There are some records left behind as well as videos.
I prefer playing such genres as hard rock, heavy, progressive, thrash and death metal. But indeed, I see no problems in performing or recording pop music :)
So, if you'd like to see me performing with your band or playing bass part for your song or album, feel free to contact me so we could discuss every detail in every single case.
Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.
