SEEKING
Drums, Saxophone, Keyboard, Steel guitar, Cello.ABOUT
I'm a Songwriter/Singer/Guitarist with 20+years of performing experience, looking for dedicated, creative players who are interested in creating NEW sounds in a traditional context.
If you look at my influence list, you'll see I'm all over the board. I just want to make the music that I hear in my head, and want players to help me make that happen.
I don't much care for labels; they're too limiting. After all, what label would you give to music that sounds like equal parts Tom Petty and Depeche Mode? Teenage Fanclub and The Buckaroos? The Sex Pistols and Wayne Newton?
I want to make music with and for people who love it and need it. My idea of success is having a small but loyal fan base, who will allow me to make my living making music.
