SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a rock guitarists and bass player. I can read music and know theory, plus I've been playing by ear since I was two years old. I received a music scholarship to UGA for trumpet, but I don't pick the trumpet up that much anymore. Unlike most musicians I've played with, I actually love to practice. Most musicians I've played with have commented on how fast I can learn songs. I have perfect pitch (most days) and I have relative pitch everyday. I'm searching for other musicians that aren't afraid to practice when not in the rehearsal room.
