SEEKING

Band to Join, Vocalist - Soprano, Bass Guitar, Vocalist - Alto.

ABOUT

Here for music and playing drums and or lead vox. I do both but not at the same time.

Drummer available for stand-in and session work on a case by case basis.
Ready to play, ready to rehearse and help build a gigging or recording project.
In house production studio, yes, including fully mic'd drums, vox mics and quiet room.
Will record others, and produce with select artists for credit if a fit.
Easy going, but definitely looking for fit.

I'm also an experienced lead vocalist so I'd be interested in Vox positions that require strong energy, from folk to rock, blues to indi. Strong presence and highly collaborative. Not a divo at all.

Always writing and building so colab's are interesting, always looking for that Vox that will blow me away so very interested in collaborating with a stellar vocalist openly with solid sweat equity.

EQUIPMENT

A lot but like to gig with a 4 piece / 5 piece Kit. Depends on the need of the band.
Kit one) - studio / session kit - Ludwig Classic Maple, Black Oyster Pearl 8 piece, Zildjian K, AA Custom, Anatolian cymbals. Strong production, recording, skills, schooled, audio production and engineer.

Both kits are immaculate.
