Who needs a guitarist/bassist?

About Me

Finally caved in and made a Myspace! Oh well, the networking possibilities on this are great.

I'm a musician and I'm here to get gigs and to promote my music and abilities. I've been playing since 89, and have been making a living from music since 97.

I have a strong background in jazz and rock, but I have played pretty much all styles at one point or another. Still haven't gotten a day job, so I guess that says something about my skills (or craziness).

If anyone needs a teacher, I teach both guitar and bass privately in the Rancho Bernardo and La Jolla areas. Also, I'm just starting to teach group lessons in the Rancho Bernardo area.

I've done studio work for various other musicians, usually laying down tracks in one take. I've played all kinds of gigs (weddings, birthdays, special events, etc.)

Click on "Art the One Man Band" or "Kingpins" in my friends list to see the projects that I have been working on.

My Interests

MUSIC! golf, snow skiing, hiking, camping in the desert, the beach, working out, yoga, cooking, dancing, reading, living, and learning.

This guy gives Turbo a run for his money!!

...and for all you young punks who don't know who Turbo is (aka Boogaloo Shrimp), here you go. He is the guy that taught Michael Jackson the moonwalk. Tremble before his glory!!

The 80s RULES!!

I'd like to meet:

Other musicians, of course!

Music:

I listen to it all.

Television:

Anything on the History channel, the National Geographic channel, the Golf channel, Discovery Science, Discovery Times, Comedy Central, and Adult Swim.

Books:

I just read "the Biology of Transcendence." It's a pretty trippy book that makes you look at life a bit differently.
