I am an open-minded musician (guitarist), interested in getting to play with other local musicians. I'm not looking for anything specific, and my level of commitment will depend strongly on how well we work together. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me :)
I am a guitarist (lead, rhythm, fingerstyle). I can also play piano/keyboards and bass. I sing a bit and I can scream.
I am a songwriter and composer, though I've written very few complete works in the last few years.
I am casually learning violin and tin whistle. I would like to learn ocarina (Legend of Zelda!), saxophone, and drums. To learn to play uilleann pipes would be a dream come true.
For a *very* small sample of what I do, I have lazy recordings on a YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/user/hatredapathy52) and an abandoned PureVolume profile (www.purevolume.com/idlikesometaquitos).
I live in Salisbury, but I an able to travel. (My postal code is not my actual postal code; it's close enough to where I live to give you a good idea where I am.)

Influences
I am influenced by everything I love, and I love a lot.
As far as rock music, most of my favourite bands are punk-related (pop punk and post hardcore): blink-182, Sum 41, The Offspring, Something Corporate, Brand New, NOFX, Bad Religion, Rise Against, Dropkick Murphys, Billy Talent, Thursday, Thrice, Funeral for a Friend
Pop rock: Jack's Mannequin, Ben Folds
I stand in complete awe of Tommy Emmanuel.
I'm also into Celtic music, video game scores (Yasunori Mitsuda, Nobuo Uematsu), post rock (Explosions in the Sky), broadly 'classical' music (Bach, Beethoven, Chopin), classic rock (Boston, Clapton, AC/DC, Queen, Hendrix), some metal (Metallica) and some country (Gary Allan, Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks).
EQUIPMENT
electric guitars, acoustic guitar, Zoom pedal, amps, digital piano, a violin, a Clarke D tin whistle, a microphone
