SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

Don't be deterred by my age - it's just a number LOL. I'm young at heart and I definitely don't look my age!

I am a musician with over 4000+ live gigs under my belt, playing at some of Melbourne's most iconic venues such as The Palace, Young & Jacksons, Duke of Wellington and just about every other pub in Melbourne!

I've also appeared on Hey Hey it's Saturday, Pot Of Gold and the Royal Melbourne Children's Hospital Good Friday Appeal.

I am looking to join a duo, trio or band already gigging with their own PA.

I've also recently completed my first book available on Amazon titled: THE ULTIMATE BAND GUIDE: "How To Make Money Playing Music"

Influences

As a guitar player, my influences are different to what I would play in a cover band. My influences in guitar music are all the guitar Gods as well as bands like Queen, Dream Theater, Bon Jovi, Paramore, Foo Fighters, Mr. Big, Extreme and Van Halen, but I also like bands like The Eagles, Pink, Taylor Swift - I like just about everything!

I've played everything from the 80s right through to current music.

3 x Electric Guitars
Acoustic/Electric guitar

I have a small home studio consisting of an Apogee Duet 3, Macbook Pro, RODE NT1-A, Logic Pro X and KRK Rokit 5 speakers. I also make backing tracks and have made all the tracks my previous duo/trio used. I record my own instrumentals and I have also recorded some demos for friends, including an audio book for a friend's Online business.
