SEEKING

ABOUT

Versatile guitar player interested in all kinds of music. Can sing some lead, and can sing harmonies. Interested in original and interesting covers. Currently performing as a solo singer-songwriter, and as a duo with my wife. The last several years I've been more into alt-country-ish music like The Bottle Rockets, Old 97s, Turnpike Troubadours, Hayes Carll, etc.

EQUIPMENT

Does it really matter? Pro stuph, no crap. Ok, some crap. I mainly use a strat and tele that I put together myself (I sold my American Fender and kept these), Gibson Les Paul, a couple of good acoustic electrics, two outstanding tube amps, the usual array of effects. I suffer from acute G.A.S. (Gear Acquisition Syndrome), so the list is liable to change at any time.
