SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Other Percussion, Keyboard, Piano, Background Singer, Upright bass.ABOUT
I've been playing guitar for over 13 years and other instruments on and off for quite a few years. I've been playing in a Toronto based psychobilly band for close to a year. I like to think that I'm a serious musician with much to offer. Currently, I would like to engage in something a little more laid back. I would very much like to be in a duet with a female singer aand try out some softer tunes.

Influences
The very first songs I started playing while learning guitar all this years back were surf rock by bands like the ventures and dick Dale and the del tones. That stuff has stuck with me all this time. Another big big influence in terms of my playing style is Neil young, his more grungy stuff, not the country. Within the last two years I've gotten into playing horror punk, psychobilly, and rockabilly. It's just such fun stuff to play and it's got a really iconic look to it. There is so much showmanship and creativity when it comes to that stuff.
EQUIPMENT
Epiohone holobody electric guitar, yamaha erg 121 (my first guitar), barracuda bass guitar, zoom g2 guitar effects pedal, dean markley amp, yamaha keyboard, and a bunch of harmonicas. I also have an accordion that if pressed I could learn to play pretty quickly.
