SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

I have been playing music for almost 20 years. I have worked with 2 bands in the past and currently teach guitar lessons locally. I'm looking to start-up or join another band and get back out playing and making music.

I am pretty easy to get along with, very quiet (which means I don't sing or do back-up vocals), and generally don't like to kick up any fuss. I say my peace and move on. There's too much music to be played to waste any time on petty arguments, so ideally I'm also looking for others who share the same laid back attitude.

Influences

I was first influenced by Nirvana in my youth. From there I progressed into Metallica, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Lynyrd Skynyrd, AC/DC, Willie Nelson, Neil Young, Days of the New just to name a few. I have an extremely eclectic taste in music and you will usually find me picking out the chords to a song I heard on the radio that day.
