ABOUT

Hobby player looking to improve skills and play with people regularly who like the same music I do. I like interpreting whatever music for now; its about where it is/was.

Honestly may be overstating my abilities; repetition and practice make the difference and can work to get to level required. I am a creator personality and like developing new ideas, whether its covers or new content.

I like (70s-80s)pop and songs that channel the vibe or encourage dance or vibing as a general rule - but making anything relevant from them is awesome!

I'm mid 30s so pretty stable on availability and experience.
I'm a student of music (self taught mostly) with varying levels of proficiency as an idea:

Basic skills at drums, bass and keys, lead guitar
Vocals can do most rock/pop style songs on practice

Intermediate rhythm guitar, lyrics, and song/setup engineering.
Traktor DJ equipment

Willing to develop skills where it works for a fun, interest based environment. Many indie rock bands that I don't hear enough of and want to broaden my horizons.
