Olly Wright
Bassist, singer and guitarist
After cutting his teeth on the Moody Blues and Pink Floyd in the musical hotspot of Luxembourg, Olly studied Progressive Rock with Engineering at Durham University, where his love of cool music and tea led him to Si and Dean. Since then he has expanded his palette to include post rock, while folk-rock tugs persistently at his sleeve whenever he plays the acoustic guitar (usually when avoiding work).
Magpie-like in his love of shiny things, Ol lives on baked beans in order to fund his expensive guitar habit; although there is evidence to suggest he would do so in any case. The Glow�s recent lack of a guitarist has given him the opportunity to air more of his arsenal than ever. And bend strings.
His equipment list is as follows.
Basses:
Rickenbacker 4003
Squier Precision Bass
Guitars:
Hofner Contempory Verythin
Yamaha AES-800B
Squier Stratocaster (periodically modified to sound and look more like David Gilmour's)
Tanglewood electro-acoustic
Epiphone EJ-200
Effects Pedals:
Boss GEB-7
Boss ME-50
Behringer Bass V-Amp
Amps:
Ashdown Electric Blue 150-15
Fender Princeton 65
