Progressive minded metal rooted funky groove laden sludge punky melodic busy playing seems to endlessly flow from my hyperactive fingers. I like to play, and I'm not afraid to show it. If you're looking for a bland in the pocket background bass player, I ain't it. I can groove and play simple when called for, but I tend not to. Let's face it, many people are turned off by this, if You're one of them, move along.
I'm no Les Claypool or Victor Wooten wannabe or clone, but I'm not afraid to wear those influences on my sleeve and flaunt them like a fresh tattoo. A wide range of techniques and styles and musical interests have continued to influence my playing into an ever evolving palate of musical colors at your disposal.
I prefer to arrange and compliment, layer and uplift other like minded and creative musicians. Keep it moving, keep it interesting, and I'll keep playing.
Looking for a fun, diverse and challenging musical outlet that isn't a dead end of mediocrity and complacency.
"mochunk" at that there dang ol' gee mail.
