SEEKING

ABOUT

I'd love to jam with musicians who like the same music I do. If I meet enough players to form a band, I'd love to go into a studio and record us for posterity. I'm a lead guitar player, practicing constantly to improve. My strength is learning classic solos note for note; I have about 50 under my belt so far. I learn fast. I also like to improvise. I love doing homework and practicing; it's so gratifying when I finally learn a specific song/solo. I love classic rock music and hard rock, as well as blues and southern rock. I'm in it for the music, not the money. Would love to jam with like-minded musicians and see where it takes us.
