ABOUT

I’m a guitarist and singer looking for a casual gig in a band. I work a standard 9-to-5 job, weekends off with occasional travel.

I play lead guitar pretty well (I’d say my biggest accomplishment is learning the Comfortably Numb solos by heart), Lately I’ve been singing and playing my acoustic guitar alot, but mainly because it’s a better setup when going solo.

As far as a band goes, I envision myself singing (with backup) and playing solos for the most part. I’d like to find a percussionist, bass player and rhythm guitarist.

I would love to work on some originals if the chemistry is right. But I'm mainly interested in putting together a nice set of covers and playing maybe one gig a week at a local bar or café.

Right now I play through my computer’s sound system so would need to get a decent amp, which isn't a problem.

If you’re interested in getting together to jam and see where it takes us, drop me a line! My email address is chrisghostfactory
