I am looking for a group of musicians that prefer to stay off of the beaten path. I love B-sides, alt-country and the sound of a tremolo. If you are looking for someone who will produce note-for-note clones of guitar god solos, I'm not your man. It's not that I'm not capable, I'd just rather play tunes that are more open to creative input without the preconception that comes with a well known piece. Also, This should go without saying, but I have no interest in playing "Nashville" style country, Metal or "Buzz" type music. I'm a competent and reliable performer with great tone, solid rhythm and a willingness to learn.
