Other Percussion, Drums.ABOUT
Experienced lead guitarist, rythm guitar playing vocalist, and bass player are looking for the drummer to complete the band line up. We're just starting out, so now's the time! Looking to play music along the lines of Radiohead, Queens of the Stone Age, Alice in Chains, etc. This could change based on where things go, but it's what I hear from us so far. We're looking for a drummer that is somewhat technical ...dynamic...interesting...not looking for someone that's happy just playing a 4/4 beat. If you're interested, drop me a line! jeffbvox at dot com

Info About Jeff:
My musical career started back in 1987 fronting the original band White Marble. Between then and now, I've played in a bunch of bands ranging from hardcore punk (Citadel -- bass) to postpunk (Sleepwalker --vocals ) to Mission of Burma inspired indie (Chain - bass and vocals) to original modern rock (All as None -- bass and vocals) to modern rock covers (Exit 5 -- vocals).
I've been an active busker around Rochester for the last 3 years while I get my acoustic guitar chops up to speed. I've recently played some solo acoustic shows doing mostly rock covers--the easy way to pay off my guitar.
I'm ready to take the next step and either put together a new band or to join an existing one. I'm looking to do alt originals. I guess anything original is alt, but it's not straight ahead rock. I'm looking to do something accessible, but original at the same time. I've got gear for recording and software for mixing down, so hopefully anything we do we can produce ourselves.
