ABOUT

I am an experienced bass player with 5 years of touring under my belt and have been slapping, picking, and thumpin the bass for 21 years, playing live for 15 of those. I have 1 Australian tour and 1 European/Uk tour and have toured all over the U.S. as well. I can play pretty much any genre, listen to a wide variety of music. I am really fast at learning songs and can play a multitude of techniques from Slap/pop, to fingering and picking. I have my own gear. I do also have a little experience with some guitar, been playing guitar on and off for about 7 years and have some live experience playing rhythm guitar in a band called Smash Social Status.

I'm looking to join an established band that has touring lined up and/or find people that are looking to start a sorta hc/pv/grindcore band that dabbles with doom/sludge but doesn't have to necessarily. It would be cool to do something that has leftist/feminist/anarchist focus in it's lyrics but it doesn't necessarily have to. I am also interested in doing a post punk/dark wave thing that can get a little noisey sometimes. Not necessarily set on these things if I find the right people to work with just wanna rock the world with trusted people I can grow with. I am also available to be hired for studio work, tours and gigs and am not opposed to any genre, anything from pop to punk to bluegrass count me in!! I have contacts throughout the country to help get shows going for a band that would be starting out so we can get moving as soon as we have some material. I was touring with SlutBomb for a reference point of what I was doing, I'm in every recording besides the first album.
