ABOUT
Recently working with Less Than Zero (80s Tribute), gigging 3-4 weekends a month for the last 5 years. Primarily a guitarist since childhood, picked up bass guitar in 2000 and gigged with several bands as a bassist for a few years. Began playing drums in 2004 just for fun and to to be able to play on my own recordings. Interested in playing for hard/alt rock, acoustic, funk, reggae and top 40 bands.
