ABOUT

Slim Grim music at Gmale

Slim Mike Grim here
I've been playing guitar since 1987. I've played in The Dirt Merchants and Int'l Criminals, which was hip-hop, punk, rock n roll.
I am into all sorts of music, and I'm just a chill, laid back, no drama kinda dude.

For the last 4 years, I have been nurturing my 12 year old son to play the drums and become a musician of his own (he's kick ass, see our videos). We've written and recorded dozens of originals, and have picked cool covers as well.

I am a photographer, and videographer, and all the images and videos you see on my page were done by myself. I also do all of our recording, here in my modest little basement studio, as I'm a self-taught, DIY, recording engineer (a work in progress)

I am looking to get into, or start a musical relationship with people who are open to doing cool, non-top 40, non-pop, deep cut style tunes.
I'm open to joining a full band, or down to just a pair of us doing an acoustic set...I just want to get back in the action of playing with like minded musicians.

I currently write and record mostly original songs, and can't ever turn off my creative flow. I will always create new material.

Write me, let's chat about creating something.
