Hello, o cruel world!!

About Me

Hello, my name is Caleb, I'm from Los Angeles. I spend most of my time going to shows, playing with my band, or writing music. I'm into just about every style, I've been playing my whole life and probably will for several more lives... I'm currently in a really heavy metal band called Ascension, we're currently recording our first record... I used to play guitar in the mighty Five Finger Death Punch, and many other bands you've probably never heard of... Keep checking back to see where I'm playing next!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

...Anyone who chooses to live "in the extremes" of society, outside of the mainstream. Punk rockers, Goths, Metalheads, Hardcore kids, Satanists, anyone and everyone who chooses to live outside what our society deems "acceptable." Come on in, and welcome!...Some really cool people to hang out with, talk about art, music, and politics, people who won't judge me or stab me in the back. People who aren't afraid to be different and think for themselves....I'm always looking for people to collaborate with, so if you play music or write poetry or draw or something like that, hit me up and let's hang....I produce talented rock/metal bands, if any of you bands out there are interested in working together, let's talk! Send me your information. I am also available for session work strictly as a tracking and/or mix engineer, as well as a musician on the following instruments: guitar, bass, drums/percussion, vocals, and programming. I am available for hire for tours and gigs, doing live sound, as a tech, or as a live session player. I also teach guitar and drums as well.... And of course I always like to meet really fun, awesome females...And these guys, the future kings of Swedish Death Metal:
