SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

I am a Bass Player looking to join experienced, dedicated musicians. I have been playing for 11 years and have lots of studio and touring experience.

My main musical influence and enjoyment comes from Prog and Post Rock; any thing with big guitar sounds, time signatures, crazy effects and electronics will generally have me hooked. That said, I enjoy a wide variety of music and over the years have played with various pop punk, funk and emo bands.

I also have my own recording equipment, and regularly record demos for my current projects.
