Looking to start a project. Kinda a cross of the following bands... Breaking Benjamin, 5FDP, HIM, The Cure, Type O Negative, and Black Veil Brides. I have some original music I own rights to that already has an EMO/Goth feel, but doing solo I can only do so much with it. I do have other influences as well, and I am more than happy to morph the sound into something unique depending on players, influences, etc...
I have 20+ years of gigging, studio, and touring experience. Getting up there, so not about the partying anymore, just want to play in front of people, make an honest go at things, and see where the chips fall.
Examples of my solo acoustic stuff can be found on my Face book page at: face book /SamuelVonStorm

Influences
Pretty much anything but rap. My main musical styles are an odd cross between 1960s acoustic folk (thanks Pop) and Alternative 2000's Hard Rock... Think Bob Dylan with a better voice meets Breaking Benjamin... I've played some country before, and would again if it were like Aaron Lewis, but I do like a good acoustic sound along with good hard rock. Not into screamo or death metal and don't ask me to scream or do a deep-throat kind of growl I ain't built for that.

Not a finished work, but a practice song feeling out a newer way to do a darker cover of the original CCR song.
