Description:
Primarily a bass player. I have been known to compose original material on guitar, drums and other instruments if at my disposal. I currently have only one song written, demo recorded, copyrighted and registered with BMI, through which I also began a publishing company.
Resume / Bio:
I began playing bass at age 17. I never took formal lessons, just played with others and learned what I could here and there. I never studied full albums of artists. Instead, I studied songs if they they moved me enough, mostly psychadelia, hard rock and heavy metal. I learned guitar at age 20, mainly to keep up with people when trying to play. In 2005, I was bass player for a Christian rock/metal band called StrongTower. With this band, I played in churches and clubs in Cleveland, TN as well as Chattanooga and several local gigs, one being a Walk For Cancer charity heId at the Celebration Grounds that year. All instruments listed I can play but guitar and bass is all I actually own at this point.
