ABOUT

Hi. I have been playing for about 15years now. I started self taught, went on to study music Ed. in college, and now I teach. i have a hodgepodged un-sequenced sort of back-ground and I am open to all musicians and musical ideas. I may not like them all, but I'm open to hear, discuss, and most importantly listen. Above all, I'm really just looking for other musicians to connect with, covers, originals, almost any genre; whatever.

However....ideally, I'd like to find someone who loves to improvise (listen) and who is open to not fitting into a defined box of a particular style. I love to talk theory (only if you do to; i won't be a snob). At heart, I'm a rocker, with a little jazz/funk/soul spirit. Let's make music!
