SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Cello is my main instrument; I have played in symphony orchestras since I was 12. I grew bored of reading music and wanted to write my own parts and play a new kind of music. I've been in two pretty serious local bands since then, so I have at least five years experience playing shows and hashing out new stuff.
I have a great understanding of music theory. In the past year, I've been focusing more on piano, however, and weird little instruments like my glockenspiel and melodica.

Influences
Classical music has been my main influence in life: Bach, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Mahler, etc.
As for (usually indie) pop/rock, I like sweeping melodies, at least a dash of melancholy, and good string parts with no overbearing vocals. I also like electro-pop, but it might be hard to use my cello skills for that. I like French pop too.
