Currently do vox/guitars/production in Vannon, a psych-metal band in Oakland.
I'm a vocalist/guitarist/producer. On guitar, I have a penchant for saxophone-pentatonics, sludge and viking metal riffs. They say I solo like Prince meets Holdsworth. As a vocalist I have Bruce Springsteen's honesty, Tina Turner's power, a startlingly sweet falsetto, practiced metal growls and screams, operatics, histrionics, special effects, and just about anything I go for. I also kick ass in the studio.
