Tony Thompson
Originals & Covers Bass Player from North Shore
I'm a bass guitarist. I'd like to find interesting projects, whether recording, writing, gigging or just jamming. I am in a band (see below) but could be interested in other projects if the intention was occasional gigs and recording.
Basses: Cort Artisan B4 Plus AS 4 string, Dean Performer 4 string acoustic bass, Harley Benton Fretless Jazz Bass clone. I also have 2 ukulele basses which I've used on album tracks!
Phil Jones Bass combo amp. Sansamp Bass Driver DI and various other pedals, including Electro Harmonix Bass Mono Synth.
I have been playing bass in Auckland band Detour St, but the other guys are very tied up with day jobs, and I'm missing playing with people, so jamming would be great.
I do a lot of recording and writing and I'm expert in Logic Pro X, having been using it since 1998. I've done professional major label level work, as well as recording and producing independent artists, and have taught Music Technology and Logic in colleges. I could teach Logic, mixing etc if you're interested. That said, I'm wanting to enjoy myself and play with interesting people, so I'm not on the hunt for a fast buck.
I've worked on all sorts of music. I mostly do a sort of funky/fusion/cosmic jazz type of thing on my own, and a writing/production project with an experienced singer in the UK, which proceeds slowly but successfully.
The best place to find my stuff is on Linktree.
I'm incredibly ancient, but I'm funkier than ever.
