Oliver Sampson is an American living in Southern Germany working as a professional musican. Since moving to Germany, he's toured Germany numerous times, appeared on television, and recorded several CDs. Future plans contain more of the same with an outreach into the rest of Europe. He's available for studio work or touring, and in particular would be an ideal sideman or band director for English speaking artists coming to Germany and Europe because of his language abilities and extensive experience in Europe.

I'm coming out of retirement to play electric bass again and I really like your chops. I'll be looking for whatever sessions you have listed over time to pick up some good cruisin' music. :-)
