I'm a creative person who is rather proficient on the electric bass and upright bass. My electric bass playing is vastly influenced but I am always searching for what best fits a musical idea, but I do consider it my primary instrument. I am a good upright player too I just haven't played it as long as electric, but I've played lots of blues, rock, country, and lots of classical on it.
I can play guitar and piano well, I've taken the time over the years because I really love playing those instruments. My chops are up on all these instruments which lets me work creatively on them, not that you need great chops to work creatively I have seen technical prowess actually hinder people before. That being said I do not let it hinder me!
I'd like to mention that if you are a creative person with an ambition to make creative music that I don't care what your skill level is, that isn't important to me.
I write lots of lyrics and have great ideas for anyone interested in working together, I am saving up for a little portable multi-tracker but do not have one yet unfortunately.
I like a lot of different types of music and would like to really blur the lines of influence with whatever project comes up, and I think I fall into the tongue in cheek/dark humor with music sometimes, but I'm very serious and extremely passionate about creating new music. I am not at all opposed to joining up with someone who is interested in a specific genre! I like music/lyrics that is/are straight-forward, serious, fantastical, non-sense, funny, percussive, emotional close to the heart. Just nothing too sappy and nothing too generic please.
If this too long description is misleading or doesn't make a lot of sense( quite possible) please just email me to clear up anything you might be wondering, even little stuff I don't mind.
