Hey! My name is Enaudi Alfaro (It's like watching the car pass by; hey, look! an Audi!). I'm a bass/guitar player from Santa Ana California looking to provide my musical service to whatever act needs it. I have 5 years experience (3 of those on guitar, 4 of those on bass) from playing in cover bands and 7 years playing bass in an original Death Metal band, but I'm looking to expand my horizons and add to my repertoire.

Though I am happy to grow horizontally by joining another rock act I would definitely love to join a Funk/R&B/Latin music group to grow vertically and challenge myself to be a better musician and not just another bass/guitar player. I do a little bit of backup vocals too, and I don't mind leaving that spotlight for the actual singers. Only training I've done vocally was High School Chamber singers back in 2008, but where vocals came up short, my bass/guitar playing managed to pick up

I am very open about my faults though. I am not trained to read musical notation, but cheat sheets and fake books were tools that I grew up with that has helped me catch up to a band's tight schedule. I've done session work as well and I'm at the ready to do what needs to be done to fit the writer's desires. I want to help build, not backseat drive someone's established artistic desires.

I've had a lot of people come up to me after a show and say I'm one of the best in SoCal, and I have every reason in the world to be cocky about this, but I'm ready to learn more and share experiences with like-minded and humble musicians who want to have a good time on stage and let a little bit of their super power out to the world. If you would like to share in this awesome experience, or feel like a million bucks after a week of working the kinks out and getting the job nailed on show day then please reach out. Hope to hear from you soon!
