ABOUT

Recently moved from NY to Melbourne, FL.

When I left NY, I left a band playing all original music with a 70's classic rock feel.

Now, I'd like to shift my focus to a fusion of funky jazz, rock and blues. Interested in attracting musicians who would like to express their creativity playing original music along with some covers.

Are you interested in the creative side? Open to local gigs and possibly more as things develop?

If you are in a band already, or not, you may like the idea of playing with a few musician creatively.

I tend to pick up my guitar and play most every day.

Looking for musicians who enjoy playing as a team with minimal ego and drama always aiming to get better and tighter. For me, that is what is most rewarding as well as fun.

My home studio is suitable for up to 5 musicians to rehearse and record.

We have a great drummer and currently looking for a keyboard player and a bass player.
