Influences

Pretty much a metal head through my younger years which has stayed with me, though music college opened up a new spectrum of styles for me and as a bass player I have played every style under the sun, though Flee was my ideal so i do like a bit of the slappa da bass.
My electric guitar style is inspired by Mark Tremonti, as i love the aggressive rhythms that he creates, while allowing space for the other members of the band. he plays in drop and full step tunes which i like too
I will listen to anything these days just to mix things up. Stand out bands from would be Pantera, Metallica, TOOL, Mark Tremonti, Stone Sour, Opeth
