SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I'm a Berklee College of Music guitar performance student looking to sit in with bands that need a gigging or recording guitar player. I can adapt to a tour depending on the time of year. I have some gigging, touring and recording experience across many genres, as well as ongoing and past education in music and music theory. I have also had experience as a chart writer, arranger, and band director. I split my time between San Francisco and Boston, and can travel. I can be contacted either through bandmix, or directly at ezra-thinbox, egraves2-berklee.edu, or called or texted at (408) 412-3972. Rates are negotiable by case, certain gigs can be done for free.

Influences
I listen to almost anything and am often asked to play music I don't normally spend time with in both professional and informal settings. I grew up with rock and funk and love them to this day: Tower of Power, Jane's Addiction, Led Zeppelin, The Main Squeeze, Tool, Sublime, Jimi Hendrix, James Brown, Pink Floyd, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley... the list goes on.

EQUIPMENT
Everything I need to tour, gig, rehearse or record as a guitar player. Amp, pedals, a couple guitars. I have everything I need to be mobile, versatile and functional, and have savings set aside to purchase any gear a job might demand. I have played shows and sessions domestically and internationally, and am ready to travel with my gear.
