ABOUT

Lifelong weekend musician performed grueling weekends(35+ weekends a year) schedule throughout the 90's in the area. Did a stint playing only guitar in a chick music alternative rock band, but went back to bass when friends needed one. Been playing active 35+ gigs a year last 3 years. I'm the second vocalist, doing some leads and all first harmonies. I play a variety of instruments on a hosted jam night weekly until pandemic in addition to gigs.

Influences

Jimi and such in the early years(Seattle) but love 80's rock more than anything else - Alternative 80's-90's my favorite but I can play any form of rock and get some enjoyment. Perhaps with the exception of 60's/early 70's music..played that crap to death already. Side studio work with original artists for any of the instruments I play - message me and I'll see if I'm interested. Don't drug(not in the last couple of decades anyway)and don't drink beyond my control.
