ABOUT

Seasoned guitarist with 30+ years experience looking to get out and play more. Played in a regionally touring band for a few years as well as some studio work & subbing in Rock, Blues, Jazz, & jam bands. Really just looking for super talented people to play with & challenge me. Age doesn't matter, as long as you can play. Don't mind jam sessions but would love to play live again. Also have a bunch of originals tunes I've written or are just about completed that I'd love to work through at some point.

Influences

Influences are all over the place but full disclosure, I'm a huge Deadhead...although my style is more Allman Brothers/Blues/Jazz. Garcia got me started, but Duane & Dickey taught me what I know...and eventually Warren Haynes. Could certainly throw Zappa, Little Feat, & Meters in there as well.
Studied strictly Jazz in college, then went back to playing Rock & Blues. I also dig hard rock & metal (COC, Fu Manchu, Mastodon, Megadeth, Pantera, Metallica...but don't really play that style), Jazz/Fusion (Miles, Coltrane, Chick, Martino, Mahavishnu, Metheny, Grant Green, anything with a B3), Alt Country (Isbell, Truckers, Sturgill), and tons more.
