ABOUT

I primarilly play bass, but can also play a little rhythm guitar and drums. I started playing bass in 2001, and have played in several bands around Houston since then. My first gigging band was called Claret Martyr, and we played around Houston in 2005 before we disbanded and I moved on to a band called Achille LaTour till the beginning of 2008. Then I gigged and went on a couple tours in a band called Barkus Sly and the Golden Egg till the end of 2009. During that time I also played bass in a band called We Both Know. The two songs above are original vocal-less demos I recorded by myself using a guitar, a bass, and a drum machine.
