SIMON STARR
Acoustic Bass
Since completing his studies at the VCA in 1993, Simon has worked constantly as a session musician as well as composing and performing in ensembles of his own. He augmented his skills by studying in New York with Dave Holland, which has held him in good stead for performances with such jazz identities as James Morrison, renowned American jazz educator Mark Levine, Barney McAll and Tony Gould. Simon has also worked as a session musician on "Live and Kicking" (TV.Ch.7), with the Suze De Marchi band (Baby Animals), Andrew Lloyd Webber, and is currently playing and recording with Joe Camileri and the Black Sorrows.
