SEEKING
Vocalist, Vocalist - Bass, Rhythm Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Background Singer.ABOUT
Interested in writing, developing and recording original music. Currently recording with a music project called Bad Shaman. I've toured and played over 1000 live shows, and have the opportunity to record in some well-known and respected studios with very talented and respected producers and engineers. I stopped touring and basically have taken ten years off, and I have been working on new material and recording here and there for the last couple of years. Looking to get more serious and finsih a 10 song record to be released. At the beginging of my time as a bass player, I spent seven years working with a progressive drummer who tought me how to hang in the pocket and take the occasional liberty to stretch out a bit. That gave a rock solid foundation and how to throw down a funky groove.

Influences
I love so many different types of music. Louis Armstrong to Metallica, Pantera to Hall and Oats, Motown to Rush, etc. I find myself mostly influenced by music with a catchy melody, a great beat, and a hook that just stays with you.
