I'm seeking to join an indie or melodic metal band that does originals and modern covers. I'm willing to explore hardcore, reggae, and punk directions. I'm also willing to do some occasional acoustic projects. I'm not willing to do the dive bar classic rock cover band scene. My goal is to collaboratively make music, record, play small venues and have fun. I have a career, and a family. Easy going person, no ego or drama.

I'm new to the area. Referrals for rehearsal space and/or lockout studios in the area would be appreciated.
