Bassist and Vocalist located in Glendale, California. I was born in Detroit and grew up in Chicago, and I’ve been in the Los Angeles area since 1987. It was John Paul Jones’ bass line in the Led Zeppelin song “Livin Lovin Maid” that caught my ear and made me want to pick up a bass halfway through high school. My early bass heroes were Geddy Lee, Steve Harris and Lemmy.

I sing well enough to have handled the lead vocals in several bands I’ve been in, but I feel I’m at my best as a bassist and background vocalist. Most bands I’ve been in have been blues-based hard rock and roll. At times, I’ve been in all original projects and at times knew enough covers to do four sets a night. Southern Rock, Heavy Metal, Classic Rock and Blues, those are my favorites.

I have a BS in Legal Studies, and I’m a full-time corporate paralegal by day. I’m available to rehearse regularly and would love to play shows regularly as well. I can be reached via email at: boadsbass@att.net or by hitting the CONTACT button on this site. Peace!
