ABOUT

I am a lead guitar player who can do backup vocals if needed looking for a serious band to record and tour with. I have been playing guitar for over 14 years, I have my own transportation, pro level gear, and a pro level attitude. I've played in two recent bands. Practical Slackers, a punk band currently supporting a full length debut on Dead City Records, and Dissonance, a thrash metal band that existed for for over 5 years and opened for Cobra Ramone, Fuquored, and Unleash the Archers before going on an indefinite hiatus. Links can be found below for samples of my playing. I'm currently working on Practical Slackers and I have some smaller projects in the works that will be pushed aside for the right gig. I'm mostly looking for a kick ass band that is already established wants to hit the road for as long as possible. I'm used to starting bands but I want to team up with one that's already going and melt some fu*kin' faces.

Cheers!
