ABOUT
Ex guitar player fallen to the exciting world of bass technique, and looking to back a band pursuing their original music.
I had a band for four years based in Santa Rosa playing lead vocals/guitar, playing SF and all surrounding areas. Alternative/psychedelic rock mostly, all original tunes.
With a new obsession on by my bass, I'm looking to take a step back, and join up some genuine folks excited on an original project of theirs. I can offer full commitment to practice and gig schedules, back up vocals/harmonies, bass grooves, rhythm/lead guitar, lots of energy on stage, and other odd instruments depending on the band's needs (mandolin, ukulele, didgeridoo). I also have a practice space if needed, complete with a kit and pa.
Whether the band is new or established matters not, I just want to find the right fit, a new sound, and good vibes.
