I can play acoustic and electric guitar and bass guitar. I alI am also experienced in singing. I love writing and recording songs.
I don´t consider myself an accomplished musician or a musician who has achieved perfection, far from it. I am a forever seeker of new learning styles, that´s why I am always trying to build on the skills I already have. I am looking for other musicians in DC or DMV area to share some music and see if we can come up with a band to play pop, indie pop, jazz, lo-fi pop, soul, etc.
