Brucifer ~~~~~~~ Guitar & Synth

About Me

Having three older brothers with large record collections influenced me at an early age. I began playing acoustic and electric guitars around age 12. I found a band to join by around age 14. Played at weekend house parties almost every weekend through Junior and High School. I started playing "professionally" (getting paid) at 17 in a number of cover bands in the central and northern portion of Michigan's lower peninsula. At 20 I went to college to study Music Theory and Broadcasting. Around that time I also got involved with synthesizers, guitar synthesizers, sound treatments and recording. I consider myself a jack of all trades. I enjoy all types of music and have tried to dabble in most.
I am currently playing Bass in a local cover band called Project GP. I also have a new project I am playing Guitar and Synth in. It is a Soul/Funk/Rock/Fusion band as yet un-named. Stay tuned for postings on upcoming gigs.
