Im looking to connect with open-minded, creative musicians who enjoy feel, harmony, groove, and rock rooted playing without ego or pressure. Im drawn to players who listen first, value real musical conversation, and are open to blending influences like jazz, melodic improvisation, rhythm-driven rock, and song-focused ideas. For me, collaboration is about curiosity, mutual inspiration, and letting music develop organically, whether that means relaxed jam sessions, writing together, or building something that grows into a project. I value a friendly, laid-back environment where creativity comes from trust, taste, and shared musical instincts.

Musical Influences & Inspiration

My influences span jazz, rock, electronic, and improvisational music, especially artists who value mood and scene, harmony, groove, and long-form development. Key influences include among many too great to list are: Elliott Smith, Phish, J.J. Cale, and Pat Metheny Group, Grateful Dead, Aimee Mann, John Scofield, Bela Fleck, Robert Glasper, Boards of Canada, Gustavo Cerati, Khruangbin, Beach Fossils, My Bloody Valentine, Ravi Coltrane, and The Beatles. Together theyve shaped how I think about tone, space, dynamics, and musical storytelling, where feel and interaction are the key elements.
