The Bass Dude

You are visitor number

Folks call me The Bass Dude. That's only because I play and teach the electric/upright bass most of the time. I am also a registered member with the QCA accredited international Registry of Guitar Tutors.

I do play and teach the drums too. Do check out www.freewebs.com/jonathansim/thedrumpages.htm

I am also presently playing gigs within the local circuit and around the region. In future, I am planning to release both a recording of my own music composition and an instructional bass book.

I listen to Jaco Pastorius, Stanley clarke, Marcus Miller, Victor Wooten, Alain Caron and a lot of other bassplayers. I do listen to other players like Earl Klugh, Bob James, Wynton Marsalis, Pat Matheny and Herbie Hancock too.
I'm more into jazz, progressive jazz, fusion, r&b,and funk.Groups would be UZEB, Dreamthreater, Earth Wind & Fire, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Spin Doctors, Jamiroquai, Incognitio, Jimsaku, Urban Knights, TOTO, Tribal Tech and lots more.
Pop and Vocal music would include the likes of Gloria Estefan, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Karyn White, Luther Vandross, Sting, Babyface, Toni Braxton and Take 6.

Latin Salsa stuffs I dig would include Thalia, Melao De Cana, The Mambo Kings, Buena Vista Social Club, Oscar Stagnaro and of course the lengendary Celia Cruz. Although I play in many different bands and setups, I really enjoy gigging with THE GROOVE. Read more about us here - http://www.freewebs.com/the_groove
