ABOUT

Singer / Performance artist – ISO GUITARIST for SURF METAL / ROCK - EVIL CABANA / LOUNGE project

IN SERACH OF DICK DALE STYLE SURF GUITARIST!!

26 yr old extremely versatile trained singer and psychedelic performance artist with over 10 years recording and live performance and a wealth of stage chops - EXTREMELY high energy performer – costumes and theatrics come with the package - is often pegged for a non-functioning psychopath by those who know him only by stage – close friends aren't quite sure yet – lovers know he’s a non-functioning psychopath

Looking for a band with a super fast wailing noisy rockabilly/surf hybrid and an evil cabana/devil’s lounge feel – high/loud dynamic is doubletime balls to the wall (wailing rock vocals) – lower/ softer dynamic will have the classic mambo/cabana/lounge feel (crooning vocals) with a touch of dark psychedelic lunacy - bouncing between a speedy/noisy, and a creepy/retro feel is what we’re shooting for

ALL INSTRUMENTS WELCOME – ALL ORIGINAL ONLY

must appreciate a touch of the avant-garde / surreal – nothing too straightforward, throwback sound but with a left of center modern touch

For those into cinema, think half Rob Zombie, half David Lynch, and a touch of Pulp Fiction on acid

EQUIPMENT

My Golden Pipes, Fabulous Folds, Charismatic Cords, VOX, Rocks, and holy socks.

And a pedal board I constructed to loop, dealy, distort, and generally maul my voice with.

Allthough I've used it without exception in the past, its been thrown across too many a stage and isn't as reliable as it used to be. As a result, its only used for recording right now, and I'll only get it road ready if it really fits the project.
