ABOUT

Playing guitar on-and-off for 30 years, mostly rhythm and covers; working on my lead chops as I've seriously recommitted over the last 5 years. No formal training beyond high school (concert, pep, marching [not all together]) trumpet, drum kit, and snare/cymbals, but understand basic music theory, read treble staff (slowly), read guitar/drum tabs, can write non-complex arrangements. I have a pretty open and flexible schedule and possible practice space.

Reach me be adding the word "new" (no quotes or spaces) to the end of my Bandmix profile name at google's mail.
