I'm open to forming or joining a band with people who like writing and performing original songs, playing instrumentals, and jamming for the sake of sharing one's individual virtuosity with other like minded individuals. I'm happy to play covers too as long as the whole group agrees to the song and is open to new arrangements. If you're a guitarist, drummer, bass guitarist, keyboardist, vocalist, or sax player please feel free to reach out if interested!

Influences
I started playing guitar in the 80's because I loved SRV, the Scorpions, Van Halen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Bros, Bob Marley, and Eric Clapton. Since that time I've come to appreciate listening to and playing good music from any genre, though my musical core is still blues-rock-funk-country. Current influences are too numerous to name.

EQUIPMENT
My "go to"guitars for gigs are a 2010 Taylor Solid Body Classic and a 2020 Jericho Walnut Fusion Evertune for my electric guitars and a Martin 000C-16GTE for my acoustic guitar. I use a 2006 Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb ReIssue amp and a variety of effects pedals depending on the tunes selected (I use effects pedals sparingly to serve the song, not to drench my tone).
