Mad Professor + Musician in London, ON

SEEKING

ABOUT

Creative, easy-going, classically-trained guitarist with extensive pro experience playing a wide range of styles. Can reliably do back-up vocals. Open to a variety of styles but most comfortable playing hard-edged rock styles (see my influences) as well as original material.

Looking to join a local band whose members are in their 30s to 50s that plays live 2-3 times per month and records originals as the band gradually develops original material. I have a day job so unable to tour from Sept-April -- looking for other members with a similar profile.

The attached Music comes from a variety of projects over several years. Each short excerpt (max 1 min per track) features me playing rhythm and lead as well as classical on track 3. These are included only to provide a small sample of my playing.
