Attitude

I'm a pretty seasoned guitarist looking for other musicians to play some post rock/instrumental/ambient stuff, make friends with, and start gigging. A bit about me: I've been playing guitar for a little over 20 years, and have been in a few different bands ranging from straight up alt rock, to punk, to shoegaze/post rock. My stuff is very melodic and effects-driven, with lots of delay and looping that often delves into wall-of-sound layers. This is juxtaposed with my love and fascination with pop music, and what/why humans find it catchy. When it comes to playing with others, I'm very open and collaborative; I'm serious about what we're doing, but I'm also about keeping it lighthearted and fun. I'm a huge gear head, and love talking shop about guitars, amps, effects, and playing techniques. Check out my sound*cloud for some songs from my last band to get an idea of where my head's at.
