SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
I am passionate about playing my instrument and thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to create music and entertain people with like minded musos. I am an easy to get along with bloke and strive to perform at the best of my ability, contribute wherever possible and love having a great time entertaining. I have performed in many venue types such as clubs, pubs, function centres and outdoor event stages. I have worked in bands consisting of up to 7 musicians. My playing career has covered several genres of musical styles, though the majority of time has been playing mainstream covers to the general punters that attend the above listed venues. As a younger player I was involved with a group where we wrote and performed our own songs, it was an excellent experience and one that I enjoyed immensely.

Influences
I have many influences that have helped develop my skill set over the years and I listen to all styles of music, and all levels of musicianship. I am a huge fan of Aussie rock bands that have spanned the generations, American influences such as Live, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Foo Fighters and the list goes on. I enjoy any groove that gets the toes tapping and the body in motion.
