ABOUT

Hey folks! My name's Eric - I'm a vocalist and have been playing bass on/off for years but only recently started taking it more seriously. My wife is a music teacher and pianist/flutist.

I am a bit of a geek (into video games, tabletop games, technology, reading, etc). Grew up on rock and roll, but over the years grew to appreciate many genres - alternative, progressive, funk, blues, metal, punk, hip-hop, etc.

I am looking for others that don't mind hanging/jamming with someone that is still finding their bearings. I have a deep love for bass but it was not until recently that I started to look into properly teaching myself how to play instead of just jamming along to tabs or Rocksmith.

If you want to play/hang with someone that's a bit of a geek and has a heavy interest in music of all genres, hit me up!
