I am 49 year old bass player and currently playing with a cover band in Niagara. I have been playing since 16 years of age. I have studied jazz & music composition at Mohawk college from '89 to '91 & graduated w/a diploma of Applied Arts & Sciences. I have countless hours in the studio & 100's of gigs under my belt. I am able to play a myriad of different styles w/electric fretted/fretless basses or upright. Contact info: deakes1967atgeemaildotcom.
