Guitarist, Bassist and Vocalist with plenty of stage, studio and touring experience that's looking for others to play at least 2 times a week, do shows, record, and collaborate on writing the best Rock/Powerpop/Alternative/Metal/Punk/Shoegaze around. I'm most interested in forming a new band, but I'm open to joining one if the fit is right. I hope to be recording all new material soon, as my vocals have improved quite a bit since these songs were recorded, as have my writing skills.

Seashore (working title)
Seashore (working title) Year: 2007 Album: Home demo Genre: Alternative
Pretty basic one here, just a verse and chorus ( hint: I need a band to help me flesh it out), but get's the point across as to my powerpop leanings.

Be seein' you
Be seein' you Year: 2003 Album: Treble Lift demo 3 Genre: Alternative
Taken from my former band Treble Lift's 3rd demo. I "sang", played guitar (rhythm/some lead), and wrote at least 1/2 the music. This song was co-written along with our other guitarist Pat Stevens, as was most TL songs. Cheers!
