22-year-old electric guitarist with 6 years of experience playing both rhythm and lead. My main styles are heavy metal, blues, punk rock, and country, bringing a mix of heavy riffs, solid rhythm playing, and melodic lead work.
I’m currently looking to join a band that needs a committed guitarist. I’m open to both covers and original music and enjoy building a strong sound with other musicians. I’m ready to rehearse, record, and play live.
I have my own gear and reliable transport, so getting to practices and gigs isn’t a problem. Looking to connect with like-minded musicians who want to make loud, honest music and get out playing shows.

Influences
My guitar influences come from a mix of heavy metal, classic rock, grunge, and punk. Some of my biggest influences include Pantera, Megadeth, Black Sabbath, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Sex Pistols, Alice in Chains, and Pearl Jam. and Tool.
I’m inspired by heavy riffs, strong groove, and melodic lead playing. I enjoy mixing aggressive metal-style rhythm with bluesy and classic rock lead elements, while also bringing the raw energy of punk and the darker tones of grunge into my playing.
