SEEKING
Vocalist, Bass Guitar.ABOUT
I have been playing guitar for 14 years and have studied all areas of rock guitar. I also play blues, jazz, and Classical. I sing, but prefer to play guitar and provide backup vocals. I graduated from the Clayton State School of Music in 2005.
I was the guitarist and co-songwriter in an Atlanta based band called Driven for 4 years and am currently involved in a project with the drummer from that band and we are trying desperately to find a singer and Bass player that fits into what were are trying to do. We are both professional musicians who are serious about playing out, touring and shooting for the big time. We currently have guitar and drum tracks laid down for 7 songs. Our style is straight forward hard rock. We are purposely trying to avoid being overly avant guarde or progressive so that the average person can grasp what we're trying to do. We are looking for a singer who has a strong voice, is experienced, and knows how to use vocals to drive a rock song. The Bass player needs to be of professional quality with the ability to pick up things quickly. We have a very nice practice space that is climate controlled. We are very serious about getting this thing rolling and with the right pieces added to the mix i don't feel it would take very long at all to have an album laid down and start scheduling gigs.

EQUIPMENT
a ton of stuff left over from our 4 years in a rock band. about the only thing we are lacking is a PA with power mixer. We even have an SWR Bass rig in our practice space, even though we do not yet have a bass player. I play a PRS and Warrior guitar through a Mesa/Boogie dual Rectifier.
