ABOUT

Basically, I'm looking to play with anyone who is creative, knows they have a good ear, and is kind and unassuming. I like a lot of stuff, and my home is basically anything based in 4/4 that lends itself to technical fun coupled with musicality. I'm a huge fan of prog, a la Dream Theater or Porcupine Tree, as well as electronic music, a la Zero 7 / Thievery Corporation/ Prem Joshua. There is also more straight-ahead rock like the Chili Peppers, Zeppelin, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden.

My main identity is drums, but I also dabble quite a bit with acoustic guitar, so if anyone just wants to have some fun with those, I'm game!
