-Drums: Main instrument gigged/played in bands with

-Guitar: Instrument played most through the years-learning songs/some lead riffs. Mainly enjoy rhythm guitar/vocals, so if you're looking for a hot lead player, well, I ain't it!

-Bass: I've only played for about two years, but it has come naturally to me because it has always been what I listen/hum to when I hear a song/piece. Played with church praise band. I don't know many popular song riffs by memory, but I can quickly pick them out/make up my own. Would be very excited to work with all original group and create my own bass lines.

-Vocals: Can sing lead(although I'm not much of a front man)and any harmony line (3rd/5th/7th...)-whatever works/supposed to work -- ultimately, whatever works the best for the song.

-Percussion: Can add congas, djembe, etc.

-Very interested in starting/working with an all-original Contemporary Christian or regular rock/pop band.
