SEEKING
Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar.ABOUT
ABOUT ME:
I've been performing for about 10 years in bands and, previous to that, a cappella groups like in Pitch Perfect. My most recent projects in DC include a modern rock/pop band called Rescue Squad (www.RescueSquandBand.com) and my 80s Tribute band called The Reflex (www.ReflexLive.com) which has consistently won either Best Local Cover Band or Runner Up in DC for the past 5 years.
I've got exceptionally high energy on stage, but what makes me unique is my ability to give a crowd a personal experience, even if it's a crowd of 3000 people. I memorize everything, so iPad for me.
I've performed in front of (and with) celebrities, members of Congress, festivals, every casino in the DC area; in other words, I love to perform and have done so A LOT on the east coast.
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR:
My late 90s/2000s band, Y2K, needs a lead guitarist and a bass guitarist. Must have IEM and click experience.
On the side, I’m willing also to sub, do studio work, or just jam if you're feeling like it!
OTHER STUFF:
I'm a singer who actually helps with set up and tear down. I also ran marketing for The Reflex boosting FB likes from 6000 people to over 16000.
