SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Vocalist - Soprano, Lead Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Electronic Music.ABOUT
I have a lot of live and studio experience in Canada and across Europe in touring bands and projects. I have been off of the road for about ten years and am looking to get back playing.
I'm interested in playing in a musically diverse situation where there is some writing and producing involved. Not really interested in being in a cover act. Been there, done that!
My ideal situation would be to form a core group that can take cool covers somewhere raw and driving. To be able to back singers and rappers. I'd love to play with both experienced player and talented younger musicians to create something raw, fun and fresh.
I am well known for laying heavy grooves and can lock with any drummer. I am not a selfish player and am happy to help others shine. I am strong in the studio and can produce.
