I'm hoping to move to Toronto toward the end of the year.
I've played in a fistful of metal bands and cover bands as a bassist, and the last several years as a guitarist. I've recorded 4 albums as well, not counting demos. The most recent band I'm in is Decade of Deceit. Our album is on all the streaming services. I also do graphic design for Bardic Audio Devices and Humanoid pedals.
The material I've been writing for a rock project has mostly a goth rock-type dark vibe, gets plenty heavy, maybe with light orchestrated or synthy elements. Some songs might lean a little Punk Rock, Goth Rock, 80's, Metal, whatever sounds good.
I'm also up for a more a metal project since I've been doing that for long time.
