ABOUT

Artist looking to jam. I am an artist at heart looking to ply music with people In either a professional or recreational environment. Living in Beverly, been playing Bass and guitar almost everyday for a the past 3/4 years mostly by myself. I’ve played in a surf-rock/punk band (not my favorite kind of music but pretty fun) And an avant-garde, abstract, psychedelic noise punk band (The Hickle [on be]) I want to play with people, wether it be in a studio situation, taking notes and direction from someone. I am also interested in improvising and composing music myself. I’d like to play whatever I can, I will play any genre at least once even if it’s not necessarily what I’m comfortable with or into. I think I can learn almost any style of playing. Ideally, I would like to be in a band where I contribute just as much as everyone else, and there is much improvisation and experimentation. I would like to meet people to write original music with and work with. But I am also interested in working for someone making music to sharpen my skills and experience.
