SEEKING
Acoustic Guitar, Background Singer, Drums, Other Percussion.ABOUT
My name is Pete! I've been playing the drums in metal bands for the past fifteen years, but have been itching to branch out into other styles. I have always been interested in playing rap, hip-hop, and r&b, but have never been presented with an opportunity. I don't have any formal training, but I don't adapt well to different styles. I've been rehearsing and playing shows in the Boston area with my bands Coffin Birth, which one could classify as death metal. Our album, The Bowels of Chaos, is on spotify, as is an album I did for another band, Din, called Rain Follows the Plow.

Influences
I grew up listening to classic rock and got into metal when I started playing music, but my personal taste in music now is all over the place. I love me some old school country, doo-wop, Indian music, European folk, and more.
