SEEKING
Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
Bob Dylan once defined destiny as: "A feeling you have that you know something about yourself that nobody else does - the picture you have in your mind of what you're about will come true."
I know my destiny, and it is for the world to hear the music I hear in my head. And I know it will come true. I am here to assemble a passionate team. I am here to make history. I am here because I'm finally ready.
I am an ASCAP-affiliated songwriter and recording artist. Seeking committed bass and drums for a chance to support a fully-recorded LP, mastered by a Grammy-nominated engineer. I have access to a practice space in NOVA that we could split a rental fee on.
Goals: We become the live version of the record, and then branch out to new material; Play shows to support recently completed album; record deal; placements in film/tv/commercials
Mission statement: We will leave any audience in awe. We will observe a 'no covers' policy until further notice. We will serve the songs at all times. We will crush it.
I have situated myself with a day job that will allow me to start playing shows. Touring, distribution, a label deal are the goals. I am ready for anything and everything and will stop at nothing to attain it. If you do not have this same drive and life situation, then it's not a good match. No time for people who can't play shows due to kids, work functions, boring life b.s.
