Chris Blake (Blakey): Bass Guitar
“Blakey was born and the world changed forever. Coming from a background of bass driven ska punk his bass lines form more than just the rumble to be felt and not heard. Something different happens when his fingers move, he is one of those few bass players that captivate when playing alone. So when surrounded by SUBTXT’s collection of influences his sound does more than complete the rhythm section it completes the band. There is melody here, it will find you and you should let it.
Blakey has been the first stop for many artists looking for a new song. He is a prolific song writer, writing for more bands than he has been a member of. As founding member of SUBTXT, his song writing was a major driving force in attracting the other members to join”.
