Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar.

ABOUT

Performed in a few bands over the years around Central NY. I was in a couple bands that performed around Central NY called Alchemy in 2004, Total K.A.O.S. in 2005 - 2007 and Chain Reaction from 2013 - 2018. I have all my own gear, stage lighting, and alot of knowledge pertaining to music business and experience booking, negotiating, and writing contracts for venues. Went to a 2 year college in Trinidad Colorado as a prerequisite to Berklee College of Music in Boston. At Trinidad, Colorado, I started as a Music Major, then switched to Multimedia Arts after a year, then once knowing the skills of Advanced Audio & Video Production for a year and a half, I moved on to Computer Information Systems for another year. From then, I began digitally recording and also worked as a DJ from 2004 - 2009. Combined together, I ulilize all skills and apply them to the music industry and within the music I play. I've also written, recorded, and produced my own Album in 2006, performed all instruments myself and wrote a single that had over 2200 plays the first week eventually spreading to over 30 countries. I have taken Marketing Courses and can Market a track, album, venue, and band very well. As far as instruments, I mainly play rhythm guitar to an advanced level but my lead guitar skills are just developing. I have keyboard experience and played drums for about 2 years. I've also played Bass for a band from 2005 - 2007. I own a fantastic State-of-the-Art Light Show and have enough gear to equip a 40ft. Stage. Currently, I'm seeking a new band to join or a very committed few to start up something new and powerful. I would like to remain playing Electric & Acoustic Guitars. Feel free to contact me Jeffrey Battisti a.k.a. FOOF (315) 351-6297 or (315) 899-2128. If I don't answer, just leave a message. Thanks. Rock on!
