Argh. Last Saturday, while trying to tighten up a Argh. Last Saturday, while trying to tighten up a clamp on a mic stand, of all things, I managed to rupture a “sagittal band” for the middle finger on my right hand. This keeps the tendon in place on top of the knuckle, and it started moving all over the place. Very painful after it happened a couple of times. I’m now looking at 6 weeks minimum where I can’t use my plucking hand to pluck. Gutted does not even start to cover it - cancelled a lot of gigs, and can’t even practice properly. I plan to get very, very good at double thumbing, which I think I’ll be able to do, and it’ll keep my left hand agile. Wish me luck. #injury #bassplayer
Yum. That is all. Yum. That is all.

I did get to play a little bass while in Val D’ise I did get to play a little bass while in Val D’isere at @labaraquevaldisere - massive thanks to the band for letting me join for a song. BTW the bassist from this band is seriously good. For your entertainment: Andy, 2 whiskies in, playing “Dreams”, and managing some falsetto(!!) after them… With thanks to Nita who jumped up to take the video. . : #gig #musicianslife #musician #bass #bassguitarist
Roundup time with #noedits. Sometimes you just hav Roundup time with #noedits. Sometimes you just have to throw yourself down a mountain. Val D’isere 2026, you were lovely. With one little snippet of video of Hatilla, the adorable Pyrenean mountain hound, late of the @blizzardvaldisere - who we met for the last time a couple of years ago. Pics are of Tignes and Val. Gorgeous views, bluebird days. Only one snowed off! Now the gigs ramp up!
Absolutely epic times last night, brought 3 basses Absolutely epic times last night, brought 3 basses to a session and the @rikkersguitars Bodyline won out. Aggressive tone! Project sounds just HUGE. Another massive sound from @marisasingsalot and I can’t wait to hear the finished product. Picking with a pick? Me? Well now, I’ll dig one out… oooooo that felt pretty good I honoured to have worked with you again, Mar, and that session was challenging, engaging, exhausting and occasionally bewildering 😂 P.s, zamboooonnnnieeeeeeeee . . . #gig #musotips #musicianslife #musician #bass bassguitar bassguitarist bassguitars bassguitarclub bassplayer bassguitarplayer baixonatural bassplayers bassfeatured bassgram thebasslink basslove bassplayersunited basscover weplaybass notreble lowend bassfeatured bassplayeruniverse bassfeatured bassline bassistsofinstagram musiciansofinstagram instabass instaofbass
