SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a 27 year old student, looking for musicians interested in jamming, maybe trying to find a cool sound and playing around a bit. I'm interested in creating new stuff, but am also interested in playing with an acoustic player/vocalist, maybe adding simple rhythm guitar, bass, or cajon percussion for bar cover shows.

I love music, used to drum in a blues rock band, but haven't played for awhile and would love to get back into it with some people who love to play, are interested in creating some cool music, or just want to jam. I am a frustrated writer who sometimes comes up with some cool lyrics but can't sing em myself haha.

I am mainly a drummer (that's what I played in the band), but have also been playing bass for years, but have never played bass in an ensemble, and would love the opportunity to work it out and collaborate.

Influences

I love aggressive riff oriented rock and alternative when it comes to bass and drums, and love the playing style of Dave Grohl, Matt Helders of Arctic Monkeys, Trivett Wingo, former drummer of The Sword. I love anything with a good beat, but definitely have space in my heart for beautiful melodies. Some of my favourite artists are:

Arctic Monkeys, Peter Gabriel, Genesis, Silversun Pickups, Tool, Arcade Fire, Nirvana, Queens of the Stone Age, Regina Spektor, Kate Bush, Franz Ferdinand, and so many more.
