SEEKING

ABOUT

I started playing way back in 1986...my first bass came along in the form of an old Hagstrom Swede. Took a few lessons, but quickly realized that I progressed faster on my own. I started with the classics - The Who, Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Stones, etc. I basically tried to learn everything I could. Formed my first band called Incoming in 1988 with some friends. Jammed a lot, did some parties, but never anything really serious. Had lots of fun though. :-)

Jammed with friends on and off for a while, but eventually put the bass down for several years until the late 90's. In 2004 I joined a new band called Devil's Advocate. We did some backyard-type gigs and went through several line-up changes before our first "real" gig in 2006. Devil's Advocate became 13th Floor in 2010. We do fun party covers from the 60's onward. I have been performing with them steadily to this day. Additionally, I've done fill in work for various bands throughout the years.
