Band to Join, Background Singer, Drums, Keyboard, Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Vocalist.ABOUT
Rhythm guitarist looking for a heavier project. Ideally something that combines elements of genres like doom and ambient with black or death metal. Something you can really headbang to, but also has lots of depth.
Looking for likeminded players and the right situation. I have kids, so my availability is often limited. But when I commit to something, I really stick to it. This is a hobby for me, but I am passionate about music. My hope is to gig locally on a somewhat regular basis.
I cut my teeth playing rhythm, mostly Tool. But I've been venturing heavily into leads and metal riffing the last few years. Writing is not my forte, hoping to connect with people who can push me to be better there. I am very good at dissecting and understanding elements of a song, though.
