About

I am well rounded in rock music from all eras. I am also heavily steeped in punk and funk but my heart is in rock. I like to improvise. I also write music and several original pieces that can be developed. Influences include Paul McCartney, Rush, Primus, Led Zeppelin, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, Coheed and Cambria, Jack’s Mannequin, Motown, A Day to Remember and more. I am currently looking to join a working band and want to play as often as possible. I would possibly be available to play as a fill in for a night/weekend. I'm also VERY KEEN on some possible studio work. If interested, contact Derek at [cell:(352) 214-2401 ] or you can e-mail me, jimi0225 at hotmail dot com
