ABOUT
I primarily play bass; I am also a singer (baritone range).
I was most recently part of a progressive metal project, Echoes of Earth, with drummer Lee Corrado (CypherSeer), guitarist Alex Marucci (Visualist), guitarist Andrew Pevny (Framework) and vocalist Zeno Rodrigo (CypherSeer). I can be heard on the single “Alitheia”.
Prior to Echoes of Earth, I was with the modern hard rock outfit Siravo. My bass work can be found on the band’s 2013 EP “Hearts & Minds”, the 2015 albums “Vassal”, and the the 2018 album “The Restless & The Mad”.
Before Siravo, I was in the classic rock band The Tired Starlings, the celtic rock band Cenedl, the Beatles tribute band James Eaton & The Feelgood Band, and the Christian rock group dt65.
