ABOUT

Looking for musicians who want to be part of a cross-genre creative process, for jamming, recording, and possibly live shows. Not really interested in a cover project, but ok with playing occasional covers if they offer a new take or interpretation.

Open to working with folks of all genres, ages, and experience levels. I have pretty eclectic tastes and interests; I want to explore new styles and sounds.

I gigged extensively many years ago but have been mostly working solo on ambient and electronic projects the last decade. Looking to create chuggy sparse post-post-rock with glitchy time signatures or eclectic electronic artsy grooves, for live or studio.

In addition to my solo work, I sing and play guitar and keys in Psyattica, a "post-punk prog-pop psychedelic power trio."
