ABOUT

I'm a guitarist/singer/songwriter that has a pile of originals that I'm looking to work up with a band, and then record. If anything were to come of the band after that, that would be great too.

I'm looking for a rhythm section that can play their instruments with some authority, and who wants to be a part of an original project, playing funky/rocky/heavy/reggae/bluesy tunes that are danceable, but heavy enough to not be lame!

Mainly looking for a drummer and bassist to round out the band for the recordings. You don't have to have a ton of experience, just be able to play your instrument and cop a groove!

Also, I want to find players that can stay sober during jams and recording sessions. People that can't need not apply.

Influences

I'm into rock, funk, reggae, 50's/60's, rockabilly, acoustic psychadelia, alt country, instrumental sound scaping, and anything that's got a pulse and that's honest - what I'm not into is any prepacked b.s. that is trying to fit into some sort of template - just shoot me in the face!

As a guitar player, I love to play with alternate tunings, feedback, and I play kind of unconventionally. Of course all of the monster players have influenced me - Page/Hendrix/Gilmore, as well as Marc Ford, early Joe Walsh, early Santana, Bob Marley, James Brown, John Paul Jones, Brian Setzer, etc...

EQUIPMENT

Gretsch solid body electric, Epiphone 335 electric, both are tricked out hardcore and stay in tune even with the aggressive use of the Bigsby's. Fender 4x10 Hot Rod Deville. Lots of pedals & fx. E-bow, leslie & an I-Made Cherry Blaster slide guitar. I have a bunch of acoustics too..

Seeing as my tube amp doesn't come alive until it's at least on 3 (nor does the guitar), - I play with a bit of volume - plus it's rock'n'roll! It has to be loud enough to feel it! So anyone afraid of a little volume need not reply.
