Mick's 'ex-Roughcuts' unofficial page | ![]() |
Update: As of 2005 Mick is playing Chapman Stick with Thirteen of Everything | |||
Mick's bass
held down the Roughcuts rhythm
section, adding a variety of musical influences. His
intelligent playing, versatility, and steady nature
contributed greatly to the band's musical range as well
as to it's stability. Mick was with 'Diamond' Simon and the Roughcuts from the spring of '96 to late 1999, replacing Dave Liebson who left to join 'Los Downbeats'. Mick' playing improved along with the band, developing a finer feel and technical proficiency. Basses: Yamaha Fretless, Ibanez 5 String Amp: Hartke 2000 with Fender 1x15" & Fender 2x10". "I've been playing bass on and off since I was 13. Thats a long time for so few strings! I'm a Brit, (not Australian as some people think), born in Birmingham, England, and grew up with all the excesses of late '70s 'progressive' rock music, which I still listen to most. Check out my current favorite bass player Tony Levin at his http://www.papabear.com/ site. He is the inventor of the wonderful 'Funk Fingers' the best $15 dollars I ever spent. In my spare time I work (booo), play with my new daughter, and record excessively in my home studio." |
