ABOUT

Hey there :) I've been playing guitar for over 12 years. More recently, I've been writing/composing a lot of music, and would love to collaborate with others to help round out the sound and give more depth to the tracks I've written and recorded. Mostly looking for vocalists and songwriters, but open to collaborating with others as well. Would love to incorporate some piano, violin, cello or ambient sounds into my music as well, but not a must at this point.

From a vocals-perspective, I'd love to collaborate with someone who can write vocal melodies on top of the songs I've written. More than happy to collaborate on new material together as well. My preference would be for a female vocalist (thinking of something Evanescence-like), but also happy to work with male vocalists and do something along the lines of Alter Bridge or Avenged Sevenfold or something to that effect (very different, I know), given that the music I write tends to be heavier. I've been told I can sing as well, so would love to work on melodies and harmonies, too.

Not a producer by any means, so please excuse the choppiness of the upload. BandMix isn't letting me upload other things, so feel free to reach out and ask if you'd like to hear some of the other material I've written.

Check out my influences to get a better sense of the sound or vibe, and definitely feel free to reach out if you have questions or are curious to listen to some tracks!
