I am a bass player/songwriter with 19 years of experience looking for male/female musicians in the northern suburbs of Chicago between the ages of 21-35 that understand that writing quality music is more important then just playing gigs. Songs come first, gigging comes second. I am not interested in writing 3 songs and adding a bunch of cover songs just to be able to book gigs. I would like to find a singer, drummer, two guitarists, and a keyboardist. I am also open to the idea of other musicians such as string players, percussionists, & electronica musicians. Song writing ability and unrestricted creativity is a must. I would like to discover our own sound instead of focusing on trying to create a particular style of music. If this sounds interesting to you please contact me.

Influences:

My personal influences include The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Foo Fighters, Smashing Pumpkins, Ween, Beck, Alice in Chains, Love/Hate, Frank Black, Jane's Addiction, Presidents of the United States of America, King's X, and Early Alice Cooper just to name a few.
