About Me

  • About Timo Metzemakers
    Musical Background
    I got my first electric bass and started playing quite late in life, in 1988. Got my first double bass in 1993 and sold my slab soon after. I quit my day job in 2003 and I'm now enjoying the luxury of being a full-time bass player.

    I'm now freelancing southwestern France. My own band is called Grand Six (jazz originals). I also play with the following people: Bordeaux Big Band (60's big band repertoire), Yes Igor (wacky stuff), Riverboat Jazz Band (modern New Orleans jazz), l'Orchestre du Dimanche (old-time dance music played on acoustic instruments), Isabelle Drault quartet (french vocalist), Yoann Loustalot, Didier Ottaviani, Alex Golino...
    Location
    Bordeaux, France
    Additional Information
    I'm a jazz player, but I practice with the bow. I love lots of music, but Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus are especially important to me.
    Your Gear
    New Standard Cleveland with gut strings, Kremona (Bulgarian) carved bass from Bob Gollihur, Augagneur & Bergeron french bow, Chinese (Yita Music) german bow.

    I use a C-441 mic that I send to the PA, and a Revolution Solo pickup that I plug into a Markbass combo.
    Why you joined Ken's Corner
    I became a member because of the appalling events on talkbass.com.
