Played the guitar since I was very young. Check out my music files to hear my ability. I am ready to practice and gig.
I have a degree in music from the University of Michigan in Music Composition. I am interested in performing with a live band in the NYC area and also recording originals. Short of eruption (be it), there really isn't anything I can't do on the guitar.
On the music page there is me doing the Freebird solo all by myself on the guitar (original uses 4 guitars). The song Stupid People is an original I wrote and recorded all the parts except for the drums (yes singing too, so you can hear my voice as well) from a previous band.
After the solo at 2:50 in Stupid People there is a sweet "harmonic solo" I played by tuning my guitar to an open G minor that turned out pretty awesome, so if you get bored listening at least catch that.

Stupid People
Stupid People Genre: Alternative
I'm also a song writer and I wrote this song and played all the guitar parts and sang this recording of it from a previous band. There is a sweet "harmonic solo" about 3/4 of the way through that I used an open G minor tuning on my guitar to get the crazy sounds out of my guitar during the instrumental part.
