Biography
Showing the Discogs bio
US bassist (born March 19, 1953 in Buffalo, NY, United States).
After performing in the 80's with Buffalo, NY-based band Talas, he was recruited by David Lee Roth when Roth left Van Halen in '85. He recorded two platinum-selling albums with the former Van Halen front man before setting out on his own. He formed Mr. Big in 1989, achieving a Billboard #1 single in the USA and 14 other countries with "To Be With You" from their 2nd Atlantic Records album release "Lean Into It." He has performed over 4,000 live gigs on every continent except Africa and Antarctica.
