ABOUT

Been playing for years, was in a couple bands that never made it out of the garage, and I've been trying to find the right thing since then. At this point, I just want to get out and play some shows and have some fun. Definitely super committed to tour and record, etc, but I'd want it to be the right fit. At the moment, I'm most interested in doing a dark, lo-fi, fuzzy garage thing. Ideally with a drum machine, but my interests are definitely more broad than that.

Find me on FB and let me know if you've got something - even if you're just looking for someone to work on songs with.

Influences

All sorts. I've played in a sh*tty hard-rock garage band - we were all in high school once - a punk band, a ska band, a jazz band, a blues band; so it's safe to say I'm influenced by anyone that does something interesting. Names I think are worth mentioning vary, but a few big ones would be:

(in no order)
Jamie Hince (the Kills)
The Libertines
BRMC
The Cramps
Nels Cline (Wilco)
Jim Heath (Reverend Horton Heat)
Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age)
The Jam
Flat Duo Jets
Muse (first 2 albums)
FIDLAR
The Briefs
The Damned
Johnny Thunders
Jack White
All the anonymous garage bands of the sixties
