SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist - Bass, Vocalist - Baritone, Vocalist - Tenor, Vocalist - Soprano, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Other Percussion, Vocalist - Alto.ABOUT
I'm a very experienced guitarist/background singer looking to do some performing with some type of band - large or small; electric and/or acoustic. I love most types of music (see influences). Happy to play covers and originals. I enjoy rehearsing and always arrive fully prepared.
I would also be very interested in being a sub if you need a guitarist/singer - even last minute. I easily can learn three sets of music with a week's notice and I'd be happy to sub for free - assuming a relatively convenient location to West LA. I just love playing for people!
My own fantasy band would play covers and originals in the style of 'power pop': Badfinger, Big Star, (early) Beatles, (early) Who, Jelllyfish, Bob Mould, Cheap Trick, Replacements, Matthew Sweet, Elvis Costello, Posies.

Influences
I have wildly eclectic tastes in what I enjoy playing. I've played in groups that are: acoustic, blues, funk, progressive, rock, alternative, classic rock, americana, classical, jazz, R&B, folk, pop, power pop, reggae, and world. I'm a solid lead and rhythm player in all of these genres. So many influences, so little time : )
