ABOUT

Committed professional guitar and bass player. I’m currently playing bass in Eld Varg (2022–present), which is my main focus musically.

I’m also exploring the idea of a well-run tribute as a side project (currently aiming at Alice In Chains) — something done properly, with good vocals and harmonies, solid preparation, and realistic expectations.

This wouldn’t replace my current band, and I’m not looking to juggle multiple new projects or commit to anything chaotic. I’m interested in one additional project that fits around what I’m already doing and respects everyone’s time.

I’ve been in a number of established bands across metal, hard rock, punk, alternative, jazz, blues, and soul (see recent history below), and I value clear communication and having a plan.

If that sounds like your approach too, happy to chat.

Influences

I love and have experience across a wide range of genres, but heavily influenced by bands like Opeth, Alice in Chains, Tool, Mastodon, Black Sabbath, Alter Bridge, Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, Thin Lizzy, among many others.

Love a bit of flash, but it all comes back to groove, dynamics, and atmosphere within metal and hard rock.
