ABOUT

Looking for musicians to start playing with again, moderately committed to seriously committed. I have a few projects I’d be interested in, the main one is in a 90s/early 2000s cover band. Think there is a huge opportunity for nostalgic music in Orange County and Los Angeles. I have a playlist made with songs such as 3AM by Matchbox, Follow You Down by Gin Blossoms, Love Song by 311, Mr Jones by Counting Crows, Inside Out by Eve 6, Never Let You Go by Third Eye Blind, and many more, but that’s the idea of style.

I also am interested in being in a country band, I could play any instrument in that band besides drums (don’t think I’m a good enough drummer yet)

And lastly, I just started really getting into Raggae like Rebelution and Stick Figure and would be down to do a Raggae project! I can do bass or guitar for that.

I am mainly a guitarists. Looking for bassists, drummers, singers, rhythm guitarists, keyboardists to do one of these genres with.

I don’t do metal, punk, or hard rock. There’s unfortunately no market for that these days.

If I don’t reply to you, it’s most likely because I don’t think we’d be a good fit.

All the songs uploaded I have written and recorded. All guitar and bass is played by me. Most of the vocals are me.
