Gareth Hughes Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Folks - just found this on the Huffington Post - our favourite cross-dressing Korean bass player is making headlines in the US. Check it out: [url="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/10/19/whitman-twitter-fail-beco_n_768205.html"]http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/10/19/w...o_n_768205.html[/url] I gotta say - I love this guy. I'm digging his playing and his sound a lot. Check out a band he plays with called 'Oriental Express' - some really good tunes on their Myspace page. A little too smooth IMO, but I like the blend of Korean traditional instruments with modern Western-influenced 'lite jazz' sounds. Who knew?

AndyTravis Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Haha, love this guy. Wouldn't want to be locked in a room with him mind. And that 8-String Jazz is hot, can anyone identify it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, one search through Ishibashi U-Box usually brings up a few oddities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leschirons Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 This guy is so cool. And to be honest, better dress sense than most girls in Basildon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
