SEEKING
Drums, Keyboard.ABOUT
I am a well-seasoned multi-instrumentalist, but my primary instrument and first love is the electric bass. My experiences on other instruments (drums, guitars, mandolin, vocals, etc) have made me very perceptive to the role and sonic space that each instrument occupies. I try to incorporate many playing styles and approaches into my playing, regardless of the instrument in my hands. My priority while playing is to make all other musicians and the tune itself sound their best, and enjoy the moment!
My main music commitment is to my band Buffalo Stone, but interested in:
- group with a strong Grateful Dead or Allman Bros influence. Instrument switching (a la The Band) is welcome. I have a guitarist/vocalist friend who is interested in this as well - looking for a drummer and possibly a keys player too
- soul/funk group, like Secondhand Dreamcar or Tedeschi Trucks Band
I am interested in joining a group that meets regularly (twice a month or so) and has a relatively consistent and diverse line-up. I would be interested in gigging, but am also very happy to simply jam and create music with a group of like-minded, easygoing individuals. I am especially interested in playing with musicians who have experience in multiple genres and are interested in crossing boundaries and welcome shared creative input.
If you are looking for a committed and creative bass player who can double on other instruments or sing, will bring new grooves to your group and is looking to have fun, please get in touch with me!
