ABOUT

Been playing guitar and singing for 28 years. I’ve recorded multiple albums with multiple bands over the years. My bands toured and opened for Periphery, Anthony Green (solo), Sevendust, Nonpoint, Taproot, Cold, Hawthorne Heights, and others. Nothingmore are good friends of mine, we swapped shows pretty heavily between 2008-10 and we were both offered deals at the same time; we passed and they didn’t (obviously). I backed away from music about 6 years ago when my second kid was born and I’m now looking to get back into it pretty seriously either a) with a band that’s already formed and looking to round out the roster, or b) forming my own band from scratch.

I have done lots of session playing with bands as a rhythm guitarist in bands that have big guitars on recordings but only one guitarist in the band.

I was a lead singer for 20 of my 30 years and can hold my own as a front man or fill out harmonies.

Also happy to tech for an established or up and coming player, as well as work as a lighting director.

ig is the same username; the profile just recently been reactivated after 6-7 years of being dormant.

*PLEASE NOTE* I’m not interested in joining any tribute or cover bands at this time unless it’s one of the bands listed as an influence below. Thanks.
