Rich - the "Bassman"
Rich is the “Bassman” of the outfit and hails from the shadow of “the Stones” which explains a lot! Rich also goes by the nickname “Mr 80’s” as he becomes all misty eyed whenever he spies a mullet or hears a good ‘ol tune from way back when!
Rich has played in many bands over the years, and has changed his gear more times than the cast of a Broadway musical in the search for that elusive bass “sound”. He cites his influences as greats such as John Entwhistle, Bernard Edwards, Billy Sheehan, Sting & John Taylor to name but a few.
At the moment, Rich is playing the following gear:
-
Yamaha Attitude II & Fender Precision Bass
-
Markbass Amp
-
Barefaced Bass Cabinets
-
Pedals, various
