ABOUT

I'm ready to find some real players. Interested in doing original material. Classic and hard rock to heavy blues or even hippie/folk rock, but original stuff. I'm a songwriter, and can always use a collaborator, but I really need folks with a creative desire to build a working band. Call or text 843 991 5448 or tomcatworx

A bit about me:
My last major project was a hard rock band that gigged regularly around Baltimore and DC, and produced 5 albums in our run. I'm certainly not limited to that genre, however. Over the years I've been involved with acoustic players, was a writer for a country music publishing company, and have started as well as been a member of several songwriter groups, as well as a number of other bands-some of which are still going strong.

Check some tunes I've written at ://./splayde1, one of which is accessible via the link above (Inside). Also a video of one of my tunes is posted to the left. These are from an old hard rock band I was part of. I wrote the songs, but not me singing!

Not looking for 'hobby' players. I'm looking for serious, dedicated musicians who want to do something and make something worthwhile. I work for myself, so I can jam at 5 am, 5 pm, or go from 3 in the morning till 3 the next morning. I'm WIDE OPEN for rehearsals and/or gigs.

Thanks!~
