SEEKING
Band to Join, Drums.ABOUT
Grew up learning guitar a high school and then the internet via tabs.
Started playing in bands late 90s, recording demos and gigging locally.
In the mid 2000s I was the 2nd guitarist in a Jimmy Eat World style original band that toured interstate.
My last band I played bass in a 3 piece garage punk band. We recorded our own full length album completely DIY (I love the recording process and dissecting production on albums)
Big fan of the DIY movement. Spent lockdowns building guitar pedals and in the midst of building my first electric guitar.
Looking to get my creative juices flowing again with fun, talented individuals, writing, recording and possibly performing original songs.
