Meet Jack

I’m Jack. I’ve played bass for over twenty years, on stages and on records, and I teach in the kind of space I always wanted to learn in.

On stage and in the studio

What artists say about working with Jack

Not only is Jack a consummate professional on and off the stage, but he also brings a joy and energy to performances that is infectious to both his bandmates and the crowd. While I could have had Jack just plug and play the parts, which he would have been more than capable of doing, that would have been a waste of his talents. Giving him the freedom to experiment with parts and arrangements gives spontaneity and life to performances during long and often gruelling tours. Jack is an absolute joy to work with and share the stage with.

I had the pleasure of working with Jack on the recording of my latest album and the live launch, and I can confidently say he’s an outstanding bass player. His groove is impeccable, always playing with purpose and feeling that perfectly complements the song. Beyond his skill, Jack is also a joy to collaborate with—professional and easygoing. Highly recommend him for any project!
