ABOUT

I primarily play bass guitar, but also play acoustic and rhythm guitar. I'm looking to start a cover band that plays a mix of Christian Rock/Alternative and Praise & Worship(see styles below) in the Central Mass/Metro West area of Boston. I also majored in Audio Engineering (both live and recorded audio) and minored in Video Production from Art Institute of Ft Lauderdale. In the past I've worked numerous shows in South Florida as either front of house audio engineer or stage audio engineer for acts like Bryan Adams, Suzy Bogguss and Three Dog Night. I've also done one time crew for a number of bands including Petra, Audio Adrenaline, Hoi Polloi, Dakoda Motor Company and the Spice Girls

If you're looking for a sound system and/or an engineer for your band I'm also available.
