I've been a working pro for over 20 years playing bass. I've played with some great musicians like Charles Haynes, Robert Walter, Aaron Goldberg, Matt Garrison, Mike Clark and the Headhunters, Brian Jordan, Donald Harrison, Brian Blade, Steve Hass, Jorge Rossy, Kai Eckhardt, Erik Jekebson, Dr. John, Scott Kinsey, Vinx, Steve Houghton, George Garzone, Dow Brain, Kei Akagi, Tiger's Baku, Greg Tardy, Antonio Sanchez, Steve Hunt, Bob Moses, and many others. Recorded what has become sort of a "post modern" jazz/fusion classic called "Blown Fuse" in collaboration with Steve Hunt. Check out some tracks while you are here.

I've been a college professor, had over a hundred private students, and I've traveled the world playing. I'm in the Bay Area of CA, my home state, now and digging it. I have my sites set on making another CD and then a live DVD. It will have killing players on it and should be pretty bad ass. Watch for it sometime in '08 if all goes well. If not then I'll get it out in 2009. As long as I get it out before 2012 when all hell is supposed to break loose.

For more information check out my website "Pick's Place" at http://www.lucaspickford.com. There you can pick up a copy of "Blown Fuse" or you can just go to http://www.cdbaby.com/pickford. Also, be sure to dig my father, Loren Pickford's CD's available at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/lorenpickford. My old man is one of THE BEST modern jazz alto sax players in the US. No lie! He's bad ass and he taught me most everything I know.
