Tommy Montoya + Musician in Fresno, CA

SEEKING

ABOUT

Ive been a touring musician for many years now. My bands have graced the stage with Papa roach, afi, alien ant farm, chimaira, ill nino, slipknot, fear factory, machinehead, adema, pressure 45, nuclear rabbit, trapt, and many great metal/alternative bands. I have taken a few years off to pursue a degree in filmmaking. Now that I have achieved that goal, I am looking to get back on stage. And I am eager to get a solid line-up, write new songs, launch a national tour...
