ABOUT

New to Oregon. Experience gigging and writing rythm parts with a band. Looking for a band to play with currently. Have my own gear and transportation. Looking to have a good time, make some friends, play some gigs, maybe make a few bucks on weekends,and see where it goes. Not super interested in playing with cover only bands. I can also set up and mix sound equipment as well as play rythm guitar if needed.

Influences

Everything. However, im not super interested in playing metal or punk. I enjoy listening to it. But im looking for something that is a bit more dynamic and laid back. Minus the bear, war on drugs, haim, decemberists, raconteurs, etc. Indie rock-ish with good melodies.
