Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
Guitarist/Bassist/Basement Noodler since 12, screecher-turned-singer from 14. Effective range is G2 - D5, especially enjoy doing stuff from Staley, Cornell, and Vedder.
I'm very frequently playing, listening to, and thinking about music, primarily 90's Alternative and Grunge, Alt/Classic/pop rock, and some Metal. I mostly play acoustically, and am very interested in teaming up with another or others wanting to focus a few hours in the week on some combination of arranging acoustic covers of stuff we're all interested in and creating original acoustic rock.
I'm primarily driven to put the effort in to create good sounding music with other easy-going, enthusiastic, music obsessed people for the sake of making good sounds and taking pride in the work! Playing, polishing, experimenting, creating, arranging, and enjoying music with other like minded musicians would be no. 1 for me.
Maybe it sounds funny, but I think it would be really cool to form a well rehearsed, polished acoustic duo or trio that only ever does small volunteer gigs or plays for free in the park...
