I’m interested in forming an original band or to join one. I’d like to play bass, but primarily a guitar player. That being said as a bass player I feel can bring different sound coming from a guitarist background.

Influences
I have many influences from the 60’s throughout the 2000’s. I can write and play different styles from rock to funk, melodic to driving. I play with emotion and like using dynamics within my music. I’ve spent many years playing in a few bands from the age of 16 and my last band ended roughly 7 years ago. I don’t mind playing some covers but again I’d like to write originally music again. I’ve been around the block a few times and all of my bands were NYC based. I’ve played in most of the popular venues in including the great CBGB’s, The Continental, l’amour‘s, The Bitter End, and Don Hills to say a few. I’m not stage frightened in anyway being I’ve perform since the age of 10 in the schools band and chorus. I can sing and hold an note especially with practice though I am not lead singer.

EQUIPMENT
At the moment I have a vintage Roland JC 120 paired with a Les Paul, have a distortion, chorus and wah wah. For bass I have a Fender precision and a Hartke practice amp. I am willing to invest in my equipment if and when necessary.
