Verified profile

Nick is a professional Double bass and Electric Bass player based in London. He has worked in a variety venues across the country including Ronnie Scotts, The Royal Albert Hall, The Royal Festival Hall, The Vortex, The Roundhouse and Glastonbury festival . Nick also played in an orchestra of 150 musicians for the world premier of John Cage/Merce Cunningham’s Ballet ‘Ocean’ Katy loves playing with double bass, it allows for space in the music and for her warm subtle tones to come though. This duo is great for smaller spaces where no application is allowed, but the addition of drums can be added for a stronger and racer feel.
