ABOUT

*Assembling a band* looking for bass player and drummer.
We have: guitar and guitar synth, killer tunes, gear.
I'm Matteo. I've done a little bit of everything, from metal and classic rock to big band and show tunes, this is my 45th year with a guitar in my hands. Many of my original songs have that punchy rock instrumental feel, but with a bit more Thomas Dolby and a bit less Kirk Hemmet. I spent 3 years touring with a funk band called Alaska in the 80s, If you like challenging music from Moon Hooch to Bela Fleck to Avenged Sevenfold we'll probably get along.
