Pop-Rock Arranger in Chester

I am bass player with over 30 years experience in studio work as well as playing live. I am now looking to establish myself within the industry as a bass player for hire. I play multi-genre including Rock, Pop and Country.

My work has been featured on the prestigious BBC Introducing, where the artistry of talented musicians has reached a broader audience. I'm deeply grateful for the trust and appreciation shown by my clients, many of whom have returned for more projects. Their satisfaction is the ultimate reward.

I have toured internationally (Spanish tour with Depedro and Los Angeles Residency with The Valentines). I am also a skilled multi-instrumentalist, specialising in piano, bass, mandolin and lap steel guitar. I also studied at the London College of Music and The Liverpool Institute Of Performing Arts for orchestral arrangements.

I've played on London's West End, at SXSW, toured Japan, Europe, and the USA. I've recorded in studios across Europe and work from my studio, with my trusty Wurlitzer 200a, Yamaha U3 Upright, Indian Harmonium, Nord Stage 4, Minimoog, and Austrian Audio OC818s. I've worked with World Class Artists such as, Cynthia Erivo, Lucy Thomas and Ray Quinn.

Hey I’m Alex! Think about this! You spend your time wanting to write the best song you can before taking it into the studio. The engineer is happy to record you and get paid, but what about your song? Is it as good as it can be? Don’t wait for a label before you start working with writers. Let’s take it to that next level now!

Writer and producer featured on BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio X, 'New Music Friday', 'The Indie List' & 'Hot New Bands' playlists.

Got a song that needs a professionally recorded guitar track? No problem! I'd love to record some guitar on your next tune. I'm currently studying at Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts getting a bachelor's degree in guitar performance. My strengths are in jazz, rock, blues, folk and neo-soul but am open to play any genre you need recorded!

Passion, faith, love
