James And Destroy + Musician in Chicago, IL

SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a skateboarder and artist who happens to have played in some decent bands here and there that some people have been stoked on. I've made a few records, I've been fortunate enough to tour, travel and see this amazing world because of music and for that I am eternally thankful. I've met a lot of rad people and I've had some truly awesome adventures and experiences along the way. Stay rad, beer bong life and be forever fun.

As a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, I've worked on a number of diverse projects and have fronted and toured with both independent and notable label backed groups and have cultivated a catalog of releases ranging from limited pressings to major retail releases. I am capable of and have worked in a number of capacities in regards to music, from songwriting and session work to independent production. Along the way I have worked with others on projects ranging from radio pop to hardcore and heavy metal. I am a classically trained guitarist, pianist and vocalist, am educated in music theory and application, I can both read and write music and I can sight read as well as play by ear. Although I can play a variety of diverse musical styles, I am most accomplished in modern rock, pop rock, hardcore, melodic punk rock, progressive rock, reggae and ska.
