About Me

Guitar player and songwriter. Born and raised in Southern California. Originally played in a band called Primrose and then recently Heedless Audio. I'm currently forming a new band with some great musicians to rock any venue or party that will take us. As for now, I'm just on here to keep in touch with everybody that I don't get to see too often, and show some of the stuff I have recorded recently. So kick back, relax and check out some of the artists down below....thier music is a lot better than mine!

Live gear: I use a '93 Ernie Ball Music Man EVH & '57 Gibson Goldtop Les Paul through a Peavey JSX head with 5150(stock Sheffield)4x12 cabinets. I run that through an SKB PS-45 pro series with an MXR phase 90, Bixonic Expandora I, Morely Bad Horsie I, Boss CH-1 Chorus, Boss RV-5 Reverb, and Boss DD-6 Delay. I also use a Boss LS-2 A/B switcher with a Boss GT-8 processor for a couple sounds. I use either Mogami or Planet Waves cables or a Shure ULX S4 wireless, Ernie Ball strings (.9s & .11s) & Jim Dunlop Picks (Gator Grip 1.50)

Another New Song

This one is called "Dig" and for this I had to bring out the most beat up, harshest twanged, cracklin guitar I could find....the Mojave Gibson Nighthawk. This is an original new track, and s...
