Career

Bassett formed Whirl in October 2009.[1] The band changed its name to Whirr after a musician also named Whirl trademarked the name and threatened legal action.[5] Bassett wrote demo versions of songs and showed them to the other members, after which they decided to play shoegazing-influenced music.[1]

Bassett played bass for Philadelphia shoegaze band Nothing from 2013[6] to 2018.[3] Prior to his joining, Whirr had toured with Nothing in the spring of 2013, during which he collaborated with Nothing frontman Domenic Palermo on a goth-influenced side project called Death of Lovers.[7] Death of Lovers debuted with Buried Under a World of Roses in October 2013,[8] followed by their first full-length album, The Acrobat, in November 2017.[9]

Bassett formed the indie pop duo Camera Shy with ex-Whirr singer Alexandra Morte in 2014.[10] They released their debut EP, Jack-O-Lantern, on June 24, 2014[11] and their eponymous debut album on July 14, 2015.[12]

In 2016, Bassett composed the score for Bret Easton Ellis' television series The Deleted.[13]

Bassett collaborated with Cloakroom on their 2017 album Time Well, contributing piano parts.[14]

Whirr released Feels Like You, their third full-length album, in October 2019.[15]
