ABOUT

Hello, guess I'm in the market, as it were. I'm now 33, and open to joining a band, or forming a new one. I just really miss playing with other musicians to be perfectly honest. Studied at Delta College and completed most of the music major courses, however, due to finances wasn't able to continue to complete the degree, but haven't forgot many of the lessons and skill sets (jazz, classical, blues) that have significantly helped me become the musician I am today but my heart still plays metal to the core. Although I do know how to play multiple instruments, guitar is my primary instrument. I've bought some great gear over the years and have been leaning on the idea of becoming a studio musician or recording engineer, but for right now I'd really just like to play again. So whether you're in a band needing a guitarist, or would like to get together to form a band is fine by me. Just be over 21, know your instrument well, and know how to read and write music fairly well (at least know some analysis or enough theory to know what you're doing).

Reach me on : ./marc.castillo.31 and leave a message.

The kind of music I'd like to create is mostly an experimental type of metal with some electronic textures (like dubstep or whatever). Can do some covers as well just for fun, but give me some time to learn whatever material you'd like.
