ABOUT

Looking to maybe start a duo or small combo playing covers and possibly gigging around town. Never played live or professionally before, but am getting bored with just playing by myself. I want to expand my horizons and flex my musical muscles... maybe earn a few bucks or free beers in the process.

I like to jam and am pretty good at following chord progressions and planting my own flag when soloing.

I can carry a tune, but don't have a great voice. Could probably handle background/harmony vocals.

Update: Been gone a while. Life happens. Apologies to those who have tried to contact me and got silence. I'm back now. Cheers.

Influences

Blues/rock, some folk. Not into jazz at all. I'm fond of the free form style of bands like early Zeppelin and Cream, letting the music take them where it will. I'm not crazy about copying someone else's solo, note for note.
