I am a 46 year old singer/songwriter/guitar player looking for other's who wear a suit and tie all day but commit all their free time and passion to their love of music and the desire to create, advance, and perform original rock music - even on the smallest local level - in order to fulfill their inner 16 year old who's dream never died and who's fire still burns….like me. I can sing anything and play decent guitar. I could be the lead guitarist in the eagles but i couldn't keep up with any modern shredder so that's best indication of my skill. I think of myself as a singer who plays guitar, not a guitarist who sings. I write and have uncanny ability to find hooks fast. I have a drop everything attitude towards this pursuit and have spent 20 years focused on my wall street day job and believe it's never too late to start what was meant to be.
