SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

I am a bass and rhythm guitar player looking for a band to perform covers or originals at local venues, parties, and events. I am okay playing rock tunes, but I would really like to play reggae, blues, soul, and funk inspired music. I would like to play with individuals of similar ages and similar goals. I want to grow as a musician and I am willing to put the work in to arrange, practice, receive and give feedback, and rehearse. My goal is to play locally with a band that plays tight, is well-rehearsed, and plays music people want to move and sing along to.

I have very eclectic musical tastes. I love the music of the 90s - rap/ hip hop, rock/alternative, dancehall/ reggae; and 60s - 70s rock, soul/ r&b and blues. I also love Latin music including rock in Spanish, salsa, bachata, reggaeton, and merengue. Here's a list of just a few artists I love:

Deftones, Marvin Gaye, A Tribe Called Quest, Buju Banton, Juan Luis Guerra, Jimi Hendrix, POD, Eminem, Jackson 5, Depeche Mode, Led Zeppelin, Juanes, Pearl Jam, The Beatles, Bob Marley, John Coltrane, Bad Bunny, Wu-Tang Clan, Soundgarden, Allen Stone, The Cure, Shabba Ranks, and many, many others...
