Musical artist
Robert Byron Hardy (born 16 August 1980) is an English musician and the bassist for the Glasgow -based band Franz Ferdinand .
Biography [ edit ]
Hardy grew up in the outskirts of Bradford and attended Harrow School for the Blind. Hardy is an artist with an interest in music while friend and bandmate Alex Kapranos is a musician interested in art; this is one of the primary reasons for how their friendship was established.[citation needed Through Hardy's friends from the Glasgow School of Art , Kapranos developed an interest in the work of the Dadaists and the Russian Constructivists . Many of the earlier shows of the band would come about thanks to the band's art world contacts.[1] [2]
Hardy is also a painter, a vegan, and likes grammar.[3]
Equipment [ edit ]
Hardy plays a 1974 and a 1978 Rickenbacker 4001s / Hagström / Fender Precision . He previously used an SWR Goliath bass cabinet but now uses an Ampeg SVT Pro head and Ampeg 8x10 cabs. He uses Ernie Ball strings – roundwounds, medium gauge. His plectrum is a custom .60 mm magnesium/teflon amalgam.
