I am not interested in cover bands. I would be open to playing covers but only mixed in with mostly original music.
I'd love to collaborate as part of a duo, combo, or collective.
Check my influences, they're eclectic and traverse many genres. How about you?
Played in wedding/ GB/Cover bands for years - Singer-Songwriters in L.A. Clubs, Freelance gigs in Philadelphia and Atlantic City. Jazz Fusion gigs.
Former Berklee Student and Guitar/ Bass Instructor
The videos I have here are by my friend Joe Rathbone from his first indie release, "Sweet Relief". I am playing bass guitar and organ on "Rise Above the Weather" and bass guitar on "Things I'd Rather Be Doing".
