About
I'm a 31yr old musician. My primary instrument is guitar which I am mainly self taught by ear. Prior to switching over to a full time axe man I played for years in a variety of different Alternative/Hard Rock bands as a solid drummer. I consider myself pretty decent on the guitar, but in no way do I consider myself to be the next Hendrix or Wylde. I still enjoy rocking out the bass & drums every once in a while when the opportunity is there. While on the guitar, I primarily enjoy playing a so-cal punk rock style, high energy, good vocal melodies etc. But because I come from a very diverse background of music, I really enjoy playing anything that sounds good and has a good feel to it, except polka! hahaha(not the biggest fan of the accordian, sorry folks). I try not to ever really limit myself to one genre when creating, whatever comes out comes out.
Most of the songs on my profile are just demos I have recorded on my own(with the exception of the drum beats which were done by a drum machine due to my lack of drums right now), just to give a sense of what I'm able to do creatively, how I play, and the diversity of my background. The track "Prenatal Advisory" is a rough demo myself and my other guitarist recently recorded together, and is the direction we are heading with our material.
If you'd like to hear more, contact me and I'll hook you up with more of my demos.
Keep in mind, these are just rough demos. I have limited knowledge of recording, so a lot of this is just on the fly.
If you dig the tunes though, I'm always up for some positive or constructive feedback so let me know what you think, and any suggestions you might have to.... tmcewin @ gmail . com
Cheers!
