I am a classically-trained vocalist with 25 years' performance experience, and a self-taught guitarist with 15 years' experience.
Vocally I have a wide range and diverse tastes, but feel most comfortable with a bluesy growl.
On guitar I am no virtuoso but am a competent player open to experimentation. I love blues licks, funky rhythms and fuzzed-out tones.
I'm looking for musicians in or near Mobile to form a band performing and recording original material. I can be reached at my email, mister(dot)rittenhouse(at)(dot)com.

This Thing
This Thing Year: 2012 Genre: Other
I had this rather rockabilly-sounding riff pop into my head whilst shaving tonight, so I sat down and recorded it for future use. Les Paul clone, not plugged in, next to a window unit air conditioner. Yeah, that's pure rock-and-roll tone. Okay, so it sounds like runny poo. But it's all I could manage at 4 in the morning.
