ABOUT

(Please don’t message me if you aren’t an LGBT+ Ally, we wont get along if your idea of a joke is racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic)

I’m a formerly professional bass player from the Chicago area. I don’t have a lot of free time but I miss playing music with other people. I’ve played in cover bands, originals only bands where I wrote both guitar and bass parts, and in symphonic orchestras/musical theatre accompaniment groups on a professional level.
