Hello. I have TONS of experience in-studio and onstage. I have recently been the lead singer in two hard-rock bands. One in the Albany, NY area that is a cover band, the other in the Boston, MA area that was an Alice In Chains Tribute. One band is on hiatus due to a member's health. The other encountered schedule availability problems. I am interested in jamming for fun as well and meeting new people. But ultimately, I would like to assemble (or join in) a productive group of either songwriting or gigging musicians. I am a driven musician and hope to meet others with the same mindset. Musical creativity and productivity are both a love and necessity in my life.
