ABOUT

I play keys and rhythum guitar.
I have done some back up vocals. Currently looking to develop a two to three person act. Work on harmonies. Maybe acoustic and or electric.
I am not a premier member so you will need to contact me if you want to talk.
Practice space available if needed. It isn't large but then again I've played on smaller stages and 1 of my bands used to practice there so it is doable.
Open to a lot. Perhaps even an acoustic project. Would like to continue playing out .
Looking for others who are seriously looking for a long term commitment . Not to be confused with lacking in fun/enjoyment. Looking to rehearse once a week , get a set list together and create a following by playing out for people who enjoy going out to see local live music.

, I have had the pleasure of playing with some awesome people both on the personality side and musicianship side.
Some of them are in the samples of audio and video I have shared on my page here.

I am currently not in a band but i have been in a few and have played out.
I have played with some really talented people and made some pretty damn decent music. I have had some fun and I have experienced the usual bumps that come with being in a band.
The hardest thing i have found though is finding a team of players who understand that no band is without some sort of turmoil and more importantly quitters never win and winner's never quit.

Other than that i am open to just about everything musically.
Looking to have fun, enjoy music, share that enjoyment with others.


I'm a free member so contact me here or . At elfiiifle at ya who dot com.
I know there has to be some other serious music lovers out there .
So lets get to work and make this happen.
There is an old saying : "Do what you Love and you will never work a day in your life"
Peace and Keep the Music Live.
