My name is Linus Fenton. I was born on 7th August 1995 in Guildford, Surrey and currently live in Ashburton, Devon.Â
I'm a bass player, musician and human.
I play bass in the band Tummyache with my fiancée Soren Bryce and also perform in Declan McKenna's band. I've also played bass with lots of other acts, such as Mahalia, Nina Nesbitt, Jade Bird and Mystery Jets. According to my nerdy spreadsheet I've played approximately 1,014 gigs in my career.
I also make my own music. I recorded the bulk of my debut album Evening Meal in my bedroom in east London in 2020. My friend Alex Lawther directed a music video for my song Fountainhead and it starred Roman Griffin Davis. I made another album recently at Middle Farm Studios which will be released soon.
Although having trained as a jazz musician at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, I grew up obsessively consuming bands like Radiohead and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
I also like to collect and sell records. You can browse my store here.
