ABOUT

Looking for an original singer songwriter or band that's unique, catchy, fun, talented, hardworking, plays professionally and is already established/experienced. I have a music degree but I would put my relationships, and live experience ahead of that any day. I have studio, and live experience playing hundreds, maybe thousands of shows. I'm a bassist...not a guitarist turned bass. I can read music, and work very quickly.

To listen to my playing, listen to me on this band's tracks whom I have played with for 8 years. ://milwaukees I have worked on other projects as well if you wish to hear.

Influences

I have mostly played in Rock bands with Classic Rock, and alt-country influence. I am also into lots of various styles of popular music such as Empire Of The Sun, M Ward, M83, Neko Case, Vampire Weekend, War On Drugs, Washed Out, Wild Nothing, etc. Just a few other influences are Radiohead, Afghan Whigs, Twilight Singers, Ryan Adams, Amos Lee, Dr. Dog, Spoon, Wilco, Cory Chisel, Rival Sons and more. Growing up I listened to a lot of grunge, although I don't really listen to that anymore. The classics tend to stick with me like the Beatles, Paul McCartney & Wings, Bowie, Stones, Van Morrison, Bob Dylan, The Faces, Fleetwood Mac, U2, The Band, Phil Collins, Led Zepplin, all that common stuff.
