Guitarist

I have been playing guitar for the past 14 years and in 3 current bands but I am working on many more behind the scenes.  Going to and playing shows is my biggest passion.  My friends and I have started a concert booking company where we contact bands to construct lineups and get in touch with local venues to host.
