I am a long-time part-time musician, recently relocated from the Baltimore/DC region to NJ. I've played guitar, bass, and other instruments with a few bands you probably never heard of, most consistently and recently with KIVA (.kivasong; s://open.spotify/artist/1o9DLcwuOnOgWfqLKhhslj).

My influences span generations and continents. Blues and classic rock (60's to 90's) are my guitar wheelhouse, but I'm open to learn, experiment, and mash up genres.

EQUIPMENT
Electric guitars: modded '97 Squier Affinity Strat, Firefly 338 (semi-hollow). Late 90's Yamaha BB fretless bass, Yamaha APX-4A acoustic/electric. Flute, trumpet, recorders and pennywhistles, djembes and other hand percussion. I have a Boss Katana amp for electic guitar and a few cheap pedals; only practice amps for bass at this time. What can I say? I've not been well-paid as a musician, so I make do with cheap gear until such a time as playing might pay for better. If you're not a snob about my gear we can have a lot of fun, or if things look more serious I can upgrade!
