SEEKING
Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Background Singer.ABOUT
I've been playing since the '90s and gigging since 2002, both with bands (Smock, Golf, Garden Fresh), and solo. I've also been a composer for games and other media since 2011.
Ideally, I'd like to put together a band to play some power pop in the vein of all the Big-Star-influenced alternative bands from the '80s and '90s. So, like so many singer/songwriter/guitarists, I'm mostly in search of a bassist and a drummer.
I'm also up for joining an extant group or starting something from the ground up, provided we dig the same sounds!
You can find me under this same name on all the usual platforms.
