ABOUT

Hello there…

This is something new to me so I don’t know what to expect :)

I started playing acoustic guitar 18 years ago and did pop covers for three years then moved to electric. I love the 80’s rock era of solo guitarists the most so I’ve learned from people like Steve via , Joe Satriani, Gary Moore, buckethead, Slash, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Yngwie Malmsteen and that kind of playing. That forced me to start learning music theory and go down the rabbit hole so I started playing piano as well about 10 years ago to explore how to actually make music. Since then I spent all the time learning about scales, harmony, production ,composition and improvisation.

Now i’m more into writing, improvising and composing than just doing covers or being genre specific. So I’m looking for similar minded musicians.
