ABOUT
I am a Toronto based musician who plays guitar and loves every aspect of music. I have experience in the studio, on stage, and jamming and writing in the rehearsal space. If you need a guitar player for a short or long term project please message me. I play almost every genre that can involve a guitar, but I excel at rock, metal and funk. I am very serious about my work, and very easy to work with. My only weakness is theory, but I am currently working on improving that. I have also written a few originals and can do solo work.
I play in a handful of bands, jazz coverband The Pictureframes, rock and pop cover band Moneymaker, and with Toronto sensation Laura Tremblay. We are available for hire so please check out our videos and send me an email!
