ABOUT

Looking to get a well-rounded, tight collection of songs to play at shows and record. I'd really like to focus on albums as a whole, like one piece and not just a collection of different songs. I'd like to have melodies repeating themselves and songs tying into each other a lot. And have a good build and climax in shows and on albums and in songs. Lookin for lots of dynamic control and tempo changes. I'd like to create rather simple, melodic riffs that are memorable yet strange and alternative... Hoping to do a lot of practicing/promotion/managment/production. I really wanna play some shows. Very serious if I can find the right people.
