ABOUT

I am the bassist for Akron band The Singular (.thesingularmusic). We are always open to the possibility for a multi-instrumentalist. However, my main objective here is as a graduate student in the Department of Sociology at Kent State University. I'm hoping to find people to participate in my research on musicians' thoughts and opinions on musicians and musicianship.
