SEEKING

ABOUT

I am intending on having music to submit for Guitar Center's "Connections." Therefore, my primary goal is to collaborate with those who would like to create some original works for that purpose. My secondary goal is to perform live, either with a working ensemble or to put together a group of musicians for the same purpose. Of course, it's best to get paid for our performance. Depending on the circumstances, I can play at various venues for certain occasions. In reality, we all have to schedule the priorities in life, work, family, music, and those ever-occurring contingencies. I am able to maintain my commitments responsibly and enthusiastically. If you're concerned about copyrighting and publishing your ideas that is not a problem for me. See my personal website: ://.vibrarhythmothy/ for more information about me. You can also contact me using Bandmix's e-mail.
