ABOUT

I moved to the Philly suburbs in 2020 and am now available for sub work and possibly a permanent position with a band as a lead guitarist and backup vocalist. I can also sing lead, 6 - 10 songs per night, and can provide audio for that on request.
Also, the "I tend to practice" section - I play/practice every day, but I'm fine with bands that don't practice often, and prefer to play with bands that only practice to learn new songs.
