My brother (keys) and I (guitar) are music veterans, but somewhat new to San Diego looking to start a band or project that has no boundaries. Rock, funk, soul, world, electronic, jam, pop, reggae, maybe all mixed into one. It has to have soul though at its root though. My brother was in a fairly well known pop-rock band for about 20 years in St. Louis and I was in a jam band for about 10 years in Kansas City. But we are both into world music and soul and funk and just about every genre. We've recorded a bunch of ideas as far as where to start. Email me at ryanberg7 at dot com if you're interesting in hearing them.

Derek Trucks band remade
Derek Trucks band remade Genre: Blues
I put this together real quick for a contest that asked users to remix or remake a song by the Derek Trucks band. Rather than keep the traditional blues sound, I changed it and made it dark. It's a bit sloppy as the deadline approached far too quickly. But I had fun with it and completely reworked the song. I played and arranged all the parts except the vocals.
