SEEKING
Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Background Singer.ABOUT
I've been playing in bands for the last 14 years, and I am a multi instrumentalist and songwriter, but my most comfortable place is behind a drumkit. I've been touring and recording as often as I'm able for the last 8 years. I am looking to start or join a good solid original band that I enjoy the sound of. I have the chops to play most styles exceptionally well, with the exception of traditional jazz or very extreme metal.
I have nice gear that is well maintained, and I expect the same out of people I play with, but otherwise I'm completely relaxed and easy to work with.
I am solid and comfortable in the recording studio (including playing with a metronome. The songs above were cut in 2 takes each to a click.) and on tours of any size. I can also sing most harmonies if needed.
I have a day job, but I am open most nights.

You've got red on you Year: 2007 Genre: Alternative
This was from a pop/rock band I played in with a friend. Not exactly my style normally, but it was fun, and the recordings were good. I am playing drums.
