Opportunity seeking, weather this means a just for fun thing or any thing up to more serious. Have played many gigs in cover bands. Happy to get creative or go with the flow.
I'm primarily a drummer but was a guitar player in my early days, i have an interest in getting serious about bass guitar if not drums and i have always done a bit of back up singing here and there where it fits (i can drum and sing if i practice the parts) I generally play to a visual metronome but can play to a click also.
My vocal is mainly a clean sound but i can also do distortion properly when im in practice. I sound kind of like Ian Kenny cross Jerry Cantrell when singing clean.
Love the idea of a tribute band of some sort done right.
My last band could have easily been a Chisel tribute band due to the singers ability but the majority vote was to stay covers.
Feel free to shoot me a text, i don't mind having a jam when possible, even if it doesn't promise a position or anything.

Influences
TOOL, RHCP, Metallica, COG, ACDC, Karnivool, Screaming Jets, Chisel/JB, Live, RATM, Audioslave, AIC, Grinspoon, Dire Straits.
Many many more, My sound is naturally on the heavier side, but not really what we call heavy metal in this day and age. More of a late 90s early 2000s hard rock/metal type of sound.
I can adapt to most situations reasonably fast as i get kicks out of making something come together and i generally become a fan of what ever we are either trying to emulate or create.
