I'm looking for various instrumentation, and am open to most any type of instrumentation as it can all be used in very cool ways.
Hi, I've been singing and performing live for over 10 years in the D/FW and surrounding area. I'm looking to put together a project that's interesting, groove oriented, experimental, yet commercial enough to get paid gigs ;). Please contact me with any questions, i'd love to talk with any open minded, no ego please & i promise the same in return, laid back musicians :) I look forward to hearing from you!
