SEEKING

ABOUT

I have been a musician for nearly 20 years however I took a break for some time. I have been playing Bass Guitar for nearly 7 years and despite being a brass player for many years, the Bass Guitar has become a part of me; I currently am the bassist and on-stage Music Director for Generation Church in Ahwahtukee, AZ. I have worked hard to continually improve and learn and am very confident in my abilities.

I feel I am called to use my abilities to provide great music and I have a strong drive and determination to do just that with like minded individuals.

I am also a huge classic rock/80's fan and work consistently to expand my library.

I practice roughly on average 2 hours a day, sometimes more. My job schedule is finally allowing me to pursue a more active musical life and looking for a group to be part of. I believe that true growth as a musician is attained with a group rather than solo.

I also bring production expertise, sound and lights, to the table.

Influences

My daughter once asked me, "Daddy, what is your favorite song?" How do you answer that as a musician?? As she is my main inspiration as I love to see the joy when she sings along to the various music and dances while I play, my influences span through the various decades and genres.

The short answer, to many to list.
