ABOUT

Spent two years in a space rock band and two years in a heavy metal jam band. Took a few years off to be a dad. Now I'm looking to jam around with a group that is just out to have some fun, get a little weird, play some live sets of covers and/or originals for free beer.

I guess my main style is heavy blues mixed with modal licks. I love to jam and I love bridging genres, jumping from funk to metal to psychedelic to blues. Lately I've been adding some chromatic bebop riffs into metal solos. Not sure it works, but it's fun.
