Looking to form or join a band playing some form of metal/rock. I am primarily an electric guitar player, having played in everything from metal bands, to rock hip-hop fusion bands (I recorded and released an album with the band "Working Class"). I have also been lead vocalist in bands such as a Tool tribute act "46 and Tool". I'm flexible as to how much singing/guitar I do in the band. I'm happy to play covers but enjoy writing and recording originals more so, I have quite a few unused riffs and vocal hooks that could be built upon in a band setting.
