About

I've been playing for 10 years, and always take lessons to keep up my skill set. In Saint Joseph I've studied with Jason Riley and Aaron Porr, and while in college I studied classical and jazz briefly with Joseph Armetta. My specializations are accompaniment, travis-style, rhythm and lead with my emphasis leaning towards classic rock. I've primarily performed as part of an acoustic and hand percussion duo, as well as church bands, but am seeking out rocks bands to expand my performance experience. However, I would love to be part of an acoustic group as well. I love music, and am willing to play anything, and learn anything. I currently study improvisation, but am an adept rhythm guitarist and a decent vocalist.

Influences

Mark Knopfler, Lindsey Buckingham, Richie Havens, Brian May, Billy Gibbons, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, The Beatles
