I am 22 year old male who has been playing music for about 5 years. I can play a bit of everything and have played guitar,drums and keyboards in previous bands. I would consider song and riff writing to be my strong suit. Instrument wise I prefer to play the keyboard/synthesizer and I'm focusing most of my efforts on improving my piano skills. I can also play Percussion(used to be a pretty efficient drummer but haven't touched a kit in a while) Bass and some guitar parts (power chords and simple scales and solos). I am a fan of all types of music but most of the music I create would be described as post-punk, experimental type stuff although I can and would play most any genre of music. Looking to find other musicians who are fans of the same music as me and that have the desire to create something new and unique.
