SEEKING
Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard.ABOUT
Hi, I'm proficient lead guitarist looking to get out and make some music, play some gigs and hang out with some like-minded people.
I've been told I'm a great lead player with excellent feel and a knack of knowing what to play and when to play it. I prefer to have a quick and clean set up so mainly rely on digital fx technology which is a large part of my sound.
I'm a big techie and fan of DIY, producing my own tracks, visuals and other media.
I would love to join an eclectic and creative music group that focuses on musicality and groove.

Influences
Love heavy metal, especially the proggy stuff, funk, jazz, soul, avant-garde, chiptune, FM synths, soundtracks etc (you get the idea).
Guitar-wise I had a huge appreciation for the shredders like Steve Vai and Satch when I was younger so have picked up a few hot licks from them but as I get older I appreciate great songwriting and expression more so love the ferocity of the blues stuff from Stevie-Ray and Jeff Healey and the creativity and precision of the fusion guys like Allan Holdsworth, Larry Carlton and Michael Landau.
