Russ Hayes + Musician in St. Johnsbury, VT

SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm trying to think of new compositional and mechanical techniques to use in a musical context, but I like to jam to Classic Rock, Jazz Standards, 80's Metal, or whatever. I would brag that I have a good understanding of music theory. I've played in original and cover acts for several years in the Southeast part of Michigan, and Indianapolis. I don't really know many people here, so feel free to drop me a note.
