ABOUT

Hi! I'm looking to make connections with some new musicians complete a band I'm working on with a friend. Check out our combined profile at bandmix/axis2

I've been singing all my life - pretty much every genre. I started in cover bands and in the past few years have been trying originals. My heart belongs to straight up, kick-ass rock right now, so I'm looking for some other musicians to collaborate on an original project of that ilk.

I've posted 2 songs I wrote melody/lyrics for with a previous band. I have many, many rehearsal recordings for several different original projects if there's something else you'd like to hear.

I'm extremely interested in playing out, but have little interest in "making it." So though I take my music seriously, I'm not into practicing multiple days a week.

I also use music for my mental health - not as a job, so I am really looking for folks who I like to spend time with too. So it's not just about talent, but about chemistry as well.

If you're looking for some of the same, please send me a message and I'd love to get together and chat. rockstarsbl at
