ABOUT

I've been playing Lead Guitar and slide guitar in the style of Chicago, Texas and Memphis blues greats for just a few years now. I've played music as a child (orchestral) and have been involved in music in one medium or another for over a decade. I can adapt my playing style to most forms of Western music such as classic rock and roots rock and limited Jazz. Self admitedly I am not even a good rhythm guitarist...chords are not my forte. If you would like to see me play, I am occasionally accompanying various friends and musicians Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings at the Northern Pacific Coffee Company in Parkland (Tacoma), WA. Stop by with your instrument and jam with us! You can also check out my profile at ./paparedsblues. (Will have music up soon)
