Whilst we are all locked in our houses we might as well jam along to our favourite tunes!

A friend of mine has started a Facebook group offering free music lessons for children NHS staff. The list of musicians offering tuition is incredible with some of the top players in the country and you can find any instrument you like. You can join the group via the link below:

If you aren’t an NHS worker but are looking to study Bass, Guitar or Double Bass I’m offering a special offer of £30 per hour for all online lessons during Covid-19 lockdown. Lessons are available through Skype, FaceTime, Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

I had an incredible few weeks in Autumn 2018 playing double bass with the Heart of England Philharmonic Orchestra for Steve Hackett’s Genesis Revisited tour. The live Album from this show at Royal Festival Hall will be released in October 2019.

The last festival of the summer was Proms in the Park in Londons Hyde Park. Stunning sunshine and 40,000 people dancing and singing along made it the perfect end to a very busy year for Gabrielle. This show was broadcast live on BBC Radio 2 as well as on BBC iPlayer.

Sat down with Jack Stevens to chat all things Bass, Gabrielle, Touring, Gear and how to prepare for new gigs.

Some live footage from our autumn tour last year in the video for Gabrielles latest single ‘Every Step’.

Playing my Overwater J5 Custom Bass and lovely Aguilar AG700 head with the DB 2×12 Cabinet. Loads of festival dates over the summer and a tour in the Autumn supporting Rick Astley. The new Gabrielle album ‘Under My Skin’ is out on August 17th.

As a graduate with honours from Leeds College of Music Dan has since performed throughout the world. A true professional he is equally at home on electric, upright or keyboard bass and can apply his talents to any style of music.

I am very proud to be associated with the following companies.
