Brad Grimm + Musician in Riverton, UT

SEEKING

ABOUT

I play lead/rhythm guitar and can fill in as a backup singer (baritone) as needed. I also play keyboard, though I prefer guitar where possible, and can fill in on bass in a pinch.

I'm looking for something consistent. Weekly practice and regular gigs. Players that put in the time and sound good, but may have jobs and families outside of just music. If touring is your full time job, then I'm probably not the right fit. But if you need somebody who shows up and puts the work in, then I'm a perfect fit.

I'd love a band that covers early 2000's Alternative or Emo. But I'd be happy with Classic Rock, Ska, Punk, or a variety of different genres. I practice daily and never miss, so I pick up songs quickly and will always be ready when needed. I'd also be happy with original songs and have a knack for writing lyrics.

A sample of recent songs I've learned:
Beatles - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Weezer - Hero
Green Day - Holiday
Bowling for Soup - 1985
Paramore - Ain't it Fun
Led Zeppelin - The Ocean
Blink-182 - All the Small Things

I'm a father and a family man. My kids love it when I pull out the acoustic guitar and jam. We have a bunch of house favorites. Some of their favorite songs include:
Beatles - Blackbird
Cailin - Unwritten Law
Death Cab for Cutie - I Will Follow You into the Dark
Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah
AJR - Dear Winter
Jack's Mannequin - Swim
