ABOUT

I began playing guitar somewhere around age 10 or 11. Was lead guitiarist, songwriter, vocalist, and founding member of central Mississippi rock band, "Changing Lanes", beginning in junior high school (abt 2005/06) and continuing through high school and into college, when members went in different directions. I continue to play heavy rock/metal, some alternative, a little acoustic, and original twists on the occasional cover. Might even surprise you with a random little folk number. My music is described as bold, progressive, melodic and meaningful. Playlist is varied. Just so you know, I am Christian.

Well versed in the studio and live performances. I read music and sightread, play by ear and improvise.

Though guitar is my first love, I've also played trumpet in marching and symphonic band from 6th grade up through my freshman year in college. Primary instrument in band was the trumpet, and did time as section leader, but also played guitar for select arrangements and for indoor drumline.


Seeking like minded experienced musicians looking to form a band, and/or possibly joining an established group. Also available for studio sessions.
