SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I'm a touring and studio keyboardist and producer who has worked with a wide variety of artists including Billy Preston, Brian Bromberg, Bobby Kimball (lead singer of Toto), Mark Lindsay, Norm Stockton, Michelle Shocked, Scott Wilkie, Rick Springfield, Crystal Lewis and many others. I would consider myself a keyboardist that leans towards an old-school approach. But I also am heavily influenced by more modern art-rock artists. A small list of the artists I love would include The Beatles, Radiohead, Earth Wind & Fire, Steely Dan, Beck, Tears For Fears, and many many more. I like most styles of music and enjoy putting on different hats at different times...
