Bassist in Auckland

Specializing in Jazz Double Bass with over 30 years of musical experience in the United States and New Zealand.

Bring Jazz to Your Space or Event

Having moved to New Zealand in 2020, I have built a network of some of the best jazz musicians in Auckland. My goal is to bring the perfect ensemble to your location to fit the needs of the space and the vibe. 

 

I specialise in small ensembles, from duos to quartets, that will suit venues from bars, restaurants, hotel lobbies, retirement villages to weddings and corporate events.  

 

Musical selections focus on the jazz standard repertoire that you would hear in a classic New York City jazz club.  However, song selections can be tailored to an event, such as a Jazzy Christmas party or swing dancing.
