ABOUT

Hi all—recently moved to London from the US and looking to get back into gigging and writing/recording with others.

Bass is my primary instrument but I play an equal amount of guitar as well as a bit of drums. Interested in playing progressive, groove oriented guitar music—not particularly fussed about how things unfold beyond that, but I currently tend to listen to a lot of post-punk, noise rock and old school death metal. I'm also a sucker for smart, hooky indie and would love to join or start a project in that vein if interests align. If any of that sounds cool to you, hit me up!

A brief note on the tracks posted:
Trem and GD are both demos from prior bands/projects I've been in over the years. Fine Line is from an EP released by one of those bands. I play bass on all of them and also recorded guitars on Trem.
