SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Experienced & skilled lead guitarist with strong writing chops & vocals looking to join (or form) a band in the D/FW area playing high quality original heavy rock music. I am NOT looking for a cover band and I am NOT interested in joining a religeous band or group. I have a day job, pro gear, reliable transportation, and very strong musical drive.
Contact me through Band Mix or by cell at (682)552-9660... If you call LEAVE A MESSAGE or I will not return the call.
