Nick Lowe is a singer/songwriter, guitarist, bassist and producer. He's British and came out of the Pub Rock scene with Rockpile, a killer band with Dave Edmunds. Nick Lowe famously produced Elvis Costello's first record and wrote "What's So Funny about Peace, Love and Undestanding."
He has a very old-fashioned country/soul flavor, writes really understated, classic-sounding songs and has a great, keyboard-heavy, soul-inflected style.
Nick isn't much more than a rhythm guitarist, but he plays bass pretty well. He was in the "supergroup" Little Village with John Hiatt, Ry Cooder and Jim Keltner, as a bassist.
Google him. There should be lots of info. Check youtube too.
