Aubrey Nunn (born 19 November 1966, Bloomsbury, North London, England) is an English bass guitarist, songwriter, producer, and educator. He is best known as a long serving former member of the British band Faithless. His family is of Welsh descent from the Aberdare / Cwmaman area, and his relatives include Stuart Cable, formerly the drummer of Welsh rock band Stereophonics and BBC broadcaster, who died in 2010. He was educated at Highgate School. ==Musical biography== Having fronted the pop band Troy Tempest during the mid-1980s, Aubrey gave up music to study languages, eventually teaching English at Lycée Boucher de Perthes in Picardy, Northern France. The death of a mutual friend in 1989 saw him return to London to form The Big Truth Band with Jamie Catto (later of Faithless and 1 Giant Leap, and Paul Herman (writer and producer of Dido and Corinne Bailey-Rae) with whom he extensively toured the UK university circuit, releasing only one EP ''The Summer EP'' on Akashic Records. In 1993, Aubrey joined Heavy Stereo, (later to sign to Creation Records), fronted by Gem Archer (later of Oasis), and in 1994 toured with the heavy rock band Stiltskin (who had already achieved number one status in many European countries with their Levis' Jeans advertisement soundtrack "Inside"), simultaneously recording new material for the band with their guitarist and producer Peter Lawlor (although this was never released). In 1994, Aubrey regrouped with Paul Herman to form the rock trio Bee alongside drummer Matt Benbrook (latter of Faithless, Skinny, and writer and producer of Paolo Nutini). The band caught the attention of producer Rollo, and together they produced a demo recording, but failed to gain industry recognition. When Bee disbanded in 1995, Rollo asked all three members to join a new studio project he was already working on with Maxi Jazz (who had been working with The Soul Food Cafe System and Jah Wobble), and the DJ / Keyboardist Sister Bliss, to be named Faithless. The resulting studio sessions formed the basis of the band's debut album 'Reverence'.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Aubrey Nunn )〕 During his time with Faithless (1995-late 2006), Nunn contributed bass guitar performances to releases by Santana, Corinne Bailey-Rae, Dido (''No Angel'' and ''Life For Rent'' albums), Sister Bliss, Freakpower, Gabrielle, Skinny, The Happening, Dina Vass, Pauline Taylor, Slovo and R. Kelly.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=FXpansion - Community )〕 He has multi-instrumental, writing and production credits for Dido's ''Life For Rent'' album and has appeared as a guest with 1 Giant Leap and Tim Booth (James) for their TV appearances. As a writer and producer he has also contributed writing and production to Polly Scattergood, Kelly Erez, Dan Akio and Paul Cattermole (formerly of S Club 7). In 2009, he formed the studio project 'Tribadelica', with the Jamaican percussionist / vocalist Asambai, recording material for an intended album release. This was halted three months into production when Asambai was killed in a motorbike accident. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aubrey Nunn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
