ABOUT

I'm easy to get along with, have a good sense of humour and a reasonably good formal background in music. I stopped playing after high school but got back into it again about 10 years ago. I have eclectic taste in music and would really like to find some people to jam with, maybe play some gigs and collaborate on writing some tunes.

Influences

For some reason, I've been really into the blues and alt/blues lately - everyone from Muddy Waters and Howling Wolf to Mambo Chillum, Big Foot Clarence, King Clarentz, Pig in a Can and Slobberbone. I suppose it's partially motivated by wanting to learn about the roots of all the rock music I've played and enjoyed over the years. Having said that, I have a very broad set of overall influences ranging from the Stones and Led Zep to Roxy Music, Tea Party, AA Bondy, Black Keys, Colour Haze, First Aid Kit, Hazmat Modine, Jason Ricci, etc
