ABOUT

Hey! (Send me a link to your profile here: yianni95music AT g m a 1 L DOT com)

Multi-instrumentalist but primarily a bassist. Record all instruments when solo recording. Played in NY for 8 years with Steady Sun and Blac Rabbit (before they went on Ellen lol), and a few other smaller projects, and played both before NY in Melbourne bands and since returning with La Fev. Got plenty of examples of me playing bass, rhythm guitar, guitar leads, some vocal harmonies, mixing, mastering, etc.
**Most interested in bass or rhythm guitar positions (maybe lead, depending on the parts/music).

Looking for a band or solo artist who are regularly playing gigs and/or recording music. Able to commit most weeknights and weekends to rehearsing.

Got my own bedroom rehearsing/recording room with bass amps, guitar amps + guitars, keys, vox, vox preamps, DAWs, etc., which can be used live or silent through headphones.
