ABOUT

I am a self-taught guitarist of 10 years with one year of professional lessons under my belt. I continue to grow as a musician and a guitarist and it's time to start collaborating with other artists and playing out.

My strong suit has always been songwriting, specifically in the area of riffs and hooks. My lyrics have received accolades as well. One of my songs was a runner up in a VH1 songwriting competition some years back. I'm somewhat prolific in this area but I'm tired of creating music in a bubble and want to bring other artists into the mix.

I'm primarily looking to meet singer/songwriters, guitarists, pianists and percussionists. I would love to work with a female singer and write songs for her to perform and another acoustic guitarist to create rich harmonies.

I'm a super laid back guy and I keep my ego in check when playing with other people, its all about the sound for me, not showing off. One thing I lack is experience which is part of the reason I am joining this site. Looking to meet others whom I can learn from and eventually start a band.
