ABOUT

I'm 23 and currently attending college, which makes starting a band hard. I'm a pretty decent guitarist, in that I can play pretty much every band I've listed below. I'll play rhythm or lead, doesn't matter. Have written a few songs and they come out in the vein of early Arctic Monkeys mixed with Kasabian and Arcade fire; an amalgamation of Punk/Indie/Blues/Dance if you can imagine that. I want to play in a band that is willing to play everything while keeping a base in guitar rock, but I'm willing to play pretty much anything. I have no formal training, and can probably only provide backup vocals. Committed to making a band that works and plays shows.
