ABOUT
I've been playing guitar since I was a kid. I currently play lead, rhythm, and bass in two groups. One group at church and another every few months at work. I switch between Lead, rhythm and bass depending on what is needed. I've lived most of my life in Memphis so I'm mostly into Blues, southern RB/soul, blues rock, southern rock and classic rock. Currently I'm only playing contemporary Christian regularly on stage. I'm looking for an opportunity to play more often. I prefer electric guitar lead or rhythm but can also play acoustic and bass. I can also play electric slide. I'm not primarily a singer. I can sing but it's not my forte'.
