Band to Join, Harmonica, Drums, Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar.ABOUT
I'm a bassist that truly enjoys playing the bass. I live for the low end groove. I'm open to any and all styles of music, lending my own twist to any original project. I'm easy to get along with, drama free, a quick study, flexible, willing to commit to the right project, and devoid of any baggage.

Influences
Everything influences me. My biggest bass influence is Geezer Butler, but I listen to many different players, most recently back into Bootsy and Larry Graham, Victor Wooten etc. I love the band Kyuss but don't expect to sound like them. Also Monster Magnet, Fu Manchu, Motorhead, Zep, Queens of the Stoneage, Them Crooked Vultures etc. I also happen to be a fan of rap, more because of the beat than anything else. I can groove a simple groove for hours. I am really open to all styles of music and can find a way to enjoy almost every thing I hear.

Shake it Off Track number: 6 Year: 2006 Album: Big Blue Couch Genre: Alternative
This is one of many recordings I played bass on. This particular track I played a G&L2000 Fretless bass & a G&L1000 Fretted bass. With so many different songs to choose from, I thought this would be an interesting choice to demonstrate my range of styles.
