ABOUT

Love guitar, love music in general. Particularly interested in punchy grooving metal and deep shoegaze. Would be happy playing either, but I am extremely attracted to anything with a dark gothic vibe. Have played covers and originals for years professionally in front of small and large audiences on small-club, festival, and pro-level stages. Have an ear for great tone and hooks. Also, know when to shine and when to hold back and stay in the pocket. Always try to approach any project/gig as a full professional.

I'm here to meet drummers, bassists, keyboardists, and vocalists - particularly female vocalists...I have worked with male and female vocalists for over 20 years, but prefer the female voice - it's the tonality and sound I like. I have a VERY solid writing partner who is stellar at pretty much everything (guitar/drums/vox) and have played together with him for years - listen to the EdensKiss tracks for an idea of what we were doing. Metal with melody and hooks is likely what we'll do as that's our comfort zone and we know how to get it moving along quickly (writing, recording, shows)...having said that, writing for a wider audience is absolutely on the table (i.e. rock radio). Open to any input...I'll be happy as long as the hooks and energy are there.

I am also open to collaborating on other projects, arranging and producing, or just giving feedback if requested. I'm very low-maintenance and very easy to get along with, so don't hesitate to reach out and get in touch.

Check the song clips I uploaded - that's me on all synths/orchestral parts (Necrogod - Play With Fire middle piano by Brian Eury), all drum programming (except Facetheft - that's real drums with some tweaks), all bass (except Necrogod, that's Mike LePond from SymphonyX on bass),
all guitars except the EdensKiss songs (I played half the rhythms and all the leads on the EK clips (2nd solo on Falling Into Hell)). Production (questionable or not) by me.
