Influences

I have charts for over 500 songs, mostly rock, but dance/pop and country, too. I know how to work a gig.

Given that, my influences/favorite bands are Queen, the Beatles, Kinig's X, Jeff Buckley, Prince, U2, Muse. (Rock + Vocals, right?)

I like the songs written by Bob Dylan to Connor Oberst, Etta James to Adele, Tempations to Pharell, James Brown to Band of Gypsies, Leonard Cohen to Wilco, Cole Porter to Lennon/McCartney/Harrison, Sixteen Tons to Sixteen Candles, Hank I and Hank III (and maybe a couple of Hank II).

I have a broad repertoire of songs I've performed (and charted for myself) and I have no concerns transposing songs away from original recordings.

Members Of Band

for original work, I’m guitar and vocals live (add bass, keyboards in studio)

for cover work, pick one (1): lead guitar/rhythm guitar; vocals (front person/backing); bass. I have performed professionally with a kazoo or drum machine.

EQUIPMENT

I have professional gear (depending on application, details upon request), and, while I *am* a tone freak, I will use the correct gear for the gig.
