SEEKING
Keyboard, Bass Guitar, Vocalist.ABOUT
New to Orlando and looking to fire up a solid Psychedelic Blues-based band. I've been a drummer for 14 years and have played internationally with many styles and in front of many people. I like things to be organized but mostly it's about enjoying the company of the people I'm making music with, as well as enjoying the music itself.
I picked up guitar a few years ago and am looking to continue playing guitar publicly with a band in Orlando. I played with some excellent musicians in Austin and have come to really enjoy playing guitar.

Members Of Band
Been working with a solid drummer. Cut the bass player, and now looking for someone who can play bass well. I don't need someone who's just going to pick 1/8 notes for whatever chord is up to bat. I need a bass player that can contribute to a wall of sound, filling in space without actually losing the space.
EQUIPMENT
I'm currently playing pretty much exclusively Les Pauls. I run through a Fender DeVille with a very simple pedal board. Only using overdrives, wah, and delay occasionally. I try to keep a very "airy" sound. I don't like a lot of shrill highs in my tone. I like it smooth and heavy on the mids.
Drummer is playing a Yamaha Stage Customs set up John Bonham Style with an 18" low floor tom.
