HHHproject Posted June 24, 2012 Posted June 24, 2012 Hello to everyone in Basschat My name is Henry, a rugby loving bassist (not the greatest combination!). What kicked off my interest in bass- two gigs/ bassists made me want to take up bass 1) Davide Mantovani (playing for Ingrid Laubrock), and Danyel Morgan (Robert Randolph and the Family Band- supporting Eric Clapton at the Royal Albert Hall). I worked briefly in NZ, during which time I stumbled across a review for Steve Lawson's Grace and Gratitude album, I contacted him about lessons on my return, and now 6 years down the line I am happy to still be playing, always trying to improve, never quite feeling like I am getting there! Musical loves- Robert Randolph and the Family Band, D'Angelo, Steve Lawson, John Lester, Janek Gwizdala, Gerald Veasley, Amp Fiddler, Antonio Forcione, Charlie Haden, Fat Freddys Drop, Trombone Shorty, Ben L'Oncle Soul, Jack Johnson, John Legend/The Roots, Maxwell, Gretchen Parlato, Esperanza Spalding, Buika... the list could go on for days. Looking forward to hopefully speaking to some of you guys soon H Quote

HHHproject Posted June 24, 2012 Author Posted June 24, 2012 Hello Ooops, not sure what I was thinking there! Or perhaps I wasn't thinking :s All corrected now though! I have a few forum posts to read through now, see if I can find answers to my various questions before I get posting. All the best Henry Quote
