Academically Thinking...
Before joining Scott's Bass Lessons, Philip was a quintessential part of London's 'Institute of Contemporary Music and Performance’ bass faculty. Not only a senior lecturer, his commissioned course writing enveloped a vast array of academia - ranging from Part Time and Diploma programmes, to Bachelors and Masters Degree materials.
The success and quality of his materials resulted in an international decoration from The Players School of Music, in Florida: awarding him a ‘Certificate of Academic Excellence’ in response to ‘on going dedication and devotion to music’. Scott Devine describes him as "a natural born teacher", Jeff Berlin heralds him as "one of three go-to tutors in Europe".

The Future Publications Centrinim
September '18: not a month many of you will bookmark as a significant 30 days that changed the path of the universe - but for this little cockney bassist it proved an autumnal benchmark, as I was able to realised a journalistic ambition and appear simultaneously on the front cover of both Bass Guitar Magazine (UK), and Bass Player (USA).
Joel McIver has been a seminal editor for both of these publications. I can not express enough gratitude for the trust and opportunities he's extended to me over the years; both as a monthly contributor, through my own techniques column, and via the vast array of articles, interviews and reviews that's he's commissioned.
I'm immensely proud to be part of such a wonderful team and find it hard to believe that I've now been commissioned for over 100 publications. None, however, will ever equal the feeling I received the day I was able to walk into my local newsagents with my mother and purchase the magazines you see here (I went home with the store's entire inventory!) - if you can see past Stanley Clarke, you'll spot my little face in the top right corner. A tiny, but significant footprint.
