Tony McGuinness (musician)

Tony McGuinness is the London-born bass player of the popular Irish rock-band Aslan. He originally started his music career as a drummer in the late 1970s and early 1980s but switched to bass soon after. He is one of the co-founders of the band Aslan and wrote many of their most popular songs including "She's So Beautiful", "Comfort Me", "Jealous Little Thing", "Sooner Or Later", "Here Comes The Sun". He has also produced some of the bands b-sides. He is highly regarded by fellow musicians and critics as an outstanding bass player with an unorthodox and unique playing style which ultimately give Aslan's music that distinctive sound.

In February 2008, McGuinness announced that he was to move to Australia for one year with his family and would be replaced by Rodney O'Brien as bass player for Aslan during that time.
