NINO McMURPHY

Bass - Vocals

Growing up as a child in the 70's and embracing the Funk, Soul & R&B.  Listening to the circuitous rolling thump and sparking a particular curiosity, "what is that sound ?"  In the 80"s listening to the hit pop music and then turning to punk rock I found out this was a "Bass Guitar:.  Finally in the late 80's I bought a used Weston Spectrum GT and a cheap 25 watt practice amp, I was on my way to creating terrible ear piercing sounds.  Listening to informal tips from friends and taking formal lessons from teachers has propelled me to a high level of experience.  Ranging from country, blues, jazz, rock, punk,funk, and down right alien music.  With his secretary being a 1969 Fender Jazz Bass and his right hand man being a 1976 Gibson Thunderbird Bass, you can always hear McMurphy in the mix doing his thing.
