ABOUT

Seasoned musician/ guitar player/ songwriter… Looking to jam with other guitar players, singers, drummers, bass players, keyboard players, etc. Was in a local Portland band from 1999 to 2004 (rootsy, guitar based rock) and played countless gigs all over the NW. I have a nice size music room with PA and plenty of room for a band to jam in, but I live in St. Helens… so, I realize travel may be necessary (I would be willing to travel to DT Portland, N Portland, Beaverton or Hillsboro area as well - all areas that I consider close to Saint Helens), to play with the right people… however, I would like to jam in my own space as well. Really, I am just looking to jam with other musicians and flush out some of my own song ideas (I write music but not lyrics), as well as other songwriter’s ideas AND play select covers… AND hopefully get another band together to play around the Portland area (Mostly for fun, but some extra cash would be nice if the right group formed). I am a serious musician and won’t associate with flakes… but beer while jamming is cool.
