'Britain's most innovative bassist, no contest': Bass Player Mag. So that's nice.
Basses, bikes and (b)academia.
PhD in artist-audience communities and their impact on the music.
Mostly somewhere between Birmingham and London.

@hairylarry leylines was an amazing thing to be a part of. I'm not remotely a fan of what Andy does on YouTube, but he's a brilliant musician. 🙏
