YouMa Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) Has anyone checked this guy out? He's really good. I'm assuming he has already been mentioned. Edited May 20, 2022 by YouMa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubDelay Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 He’s hilarious too https://youtu.be/hDUIz_BYybE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I came across him last year after going down some random YouTube rabbit hole. He’s great, obviously a really tidy player and he’s doing to comedy element so well that at times you really can’t tell if he is deadly serious or taking the mick. I saw some live footage and he’s got a great band although the bit I saw his vocals were hard to hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundfreedom Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Hasn't he just been made a city? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itu Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I have been looking at this name for a few times here, and been thinking: "I have heard this before." But it was Tony Bennett. I feel so old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misdee Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I really like this guy. Great playing, great hairstyle, great everything really. Thanks for bringing him to my attention!🙂 I find it particularly refreshing that stylistically this gentleman is an unashamedly 1980's-style bass player. I'm not sure if that hair is classed as a mullet (and if I understand correctly, it's pretty much the law in Australia that men have to have their hair in such a fashion), but it really adds to the overall sound. I could see this chap becoming a role model to an older generation of bass players. If he isn't already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barking Spiders Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Not heard of him before so I clicked the linked and then checked out a few more YT clips. 👍 . Very much my kind of player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouMa Posted May 25, 2022 Author Share Posted May 25, 2022 No slouch live either by the looks of things plus he sings at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJWW Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Wow, just stumbled on him for the first time! I think he is absolute class and I love the 'alter ego' thing. This is the first video that YouTube served up and what a performance... https://youtu.be/eZRzsrR44Ag?si=wlalIODQd2fD4duL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quatschmacher Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Been a fan for years. Went to see him a couple of years ago too. If you like him, check out Dabeull too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 On 23/05/2022 at 06:16, Misdee said: great hairstyle He reminds me of someone: I also think he's decided get a cheap publicist, throw himself out there as a brand identity by generating a media profile and stay in people's faces long enough to see what happens. It reminds me of the same approach taken by Mononeon...remember him? There are probably others too. There was some guy over here called Biscuit who was trying to be famous for being famous. His playing is alright but I don't think it justifies the hype because I've seen gigging ' meat and potatoes' players in the UK who are better. But maybe I'm getting a bit cynical in my old age.
