ABOUT
I've been around long enough to have been affected one way or another by most of what we call popular music, so it’s hard to tie myself down to any specific genre. Plus I grew up in Latin America, which throws in a whole bunch of other colours. Basically I'm a simple guy who enjoys real, well written songs, with proper tunes, a soul and a good groove. "Three chords and the truth," as they say. Works for me!
So what am I looking for in here?
Good musicians I can get along with, who can adapt and enjoy and work hard, with a view to putting something good together and see how far we can take it. I’m no virtuoso but I can hold my own. Some gigs would be nice, to get the ball rolling, once this Modern Plague lets audiences gather again.
