ABOUT

I'm an all around pretty easy going dude. My primary instrument nowadays is guitar which I'm primarily self taught by ear. Prior to switching to guitar, I played for years in a variety of different Alternative/Hard Rock bands as a drummer. I consider myself alright on the guitar, but you can judge for yourself. I still enjoy rocking out the bass & drums every once in a while when the opportunity is there.
I primarily enjoy playing a fast hard rock/punk style, with high energy, good vocal melodies etc. But because I come from a very diverse background of music, I really do enjoy playing anything that sounds good and has a good feel to it, except polka! (not the biggest fan of the wretched accordian, sorry folks). I try not to really limit myself to one genre when creating, whatever comes out comes out.

If you'd like to hear more, contact me and I'll hook you up with some demos.
Keep in mind please these are just ROUGH demos, we'll worry about perfect recordings when we get to recording the album. I'm no expert at recording, so a lot of this is just on the fly, but hey, it does the job.
If you dig the tunes though, I'm always up for some positive or constructive feedback so let me know what you think, and any suggestions you might have to.... tmcewin @ . com

Cheers!
