ABOUT

I have been living in Whistler for nearly 10 years and have been playing and writing music solo for the majority of that time. After my long, hermit-like state of music creation, I would love to have a song writing partner, with the hopes to leading eventually to a fully fledged band. I have a private rehearsal and recording space available, plenty of time and excess passion for music.

Influences

I really enjoy the late 60's soul and funk sound, Motown records being the most commonly known example but by no means limited to that. Think Edwin Starr, The Meters, James Brown etc etc

My last band was a dub reggae outfit in which I played the organ and did some percussion. Think King Tubby, Augustus Pablo, Scientist etc etc

Also greatly enjoy the more rough-cut and faster style of hardcore, punk and metal (black metal more specifically). Think Void, Common Enemy, Warthog etc etc
