short introduction as i know already most of the people here for the time being:
Frenchy living now in california, been playing bass for 19 years i think. i play a lot on the psychobilly scene but also played or recorded some folk, country, ska, blues, east folk, rockabilly, irish folk….anything i can.

still play with bands in europe (Surf Rats, Guitar Slingers), have a band on the east coast (Kings of nuthin) and looking for bands in los angeles now as none of the other bands play fulltime.

cheers !

so far, really good.
but i mostly spend my time renovating my apartment these days, haven’t been to any shows, haven’t played bass for a month !!!!! (longest time in my life) as my bass was shipped and will be delivered next week (hopefully in 1 piece)
but just to be there is great and people on an every day basis are really cool.
let me know if you want to visit 🙂

Nice to see you here Fantomas! I am not that familiar with most of your work but I’ve seen some of your slapping on youtube. I liked the Astro Zombies version of Bang Bang alot and Kings of Nuthin is just kickass. Music that makes you happy and in the mood for a drink B)

Looking forward to the wisdom you will share on this board.
