Band to Join, Vocalist, Vocalist - Tenor, Vocalist - Soprano, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard, Background Singer.ABOUT
My heart is in hard rock & metal. Old school metal, like Priest and Maiden, Dio and Queesryche. I also am really getting into Avantasia, Primal Fear, and Nightwish. That said, I have also spent many years touring in a country band as well as having started my musical career playing jazz. I guess you could say I'm well rounded.
