Hi everyone. I am 21 year old guitarist here for the summer, and i'd like to get a band started for a few months. I go to Purdue University for aviation and electrical engineering...but, I have many music credits and tons of pro experience..I have taught guitar professionally for about 3 years, won multiple jazz awards, and am the backup lead guitarist with Amanda Overmyer, a finalist from American Idol season 7. I taught last year @ The Cady School of Music in Albany. In addition my tune 'funky fingers' was pending licensing with ABC (still hasnt happened!! You know how this industry is...) I have done session work around albany when I was in high school (though the studio scene has been dead for a while...) and in the recent weeks have been talking to Rickey Minor about getting on the American Idol season 9 tour..for this summer, I am just looking for a band to get together and play, have fun, and just make music. Back to the roots!! I have nice equipment and my chops are up to par. I also am a very confident drummer. I am looking to form a classic rock/hard rock band, maybe with some prog elements in there. We'll see what happens. please email me if you'd like to get together. it should be awesome..who knows maybe we can make some $ too

well you certainly out class me in terms of accolades but i have been looking to for an opportunity to get serious and my chops may be up to par. I'm an undeclared engineering major at RPI in troy and i also work as a live sound tech for WRPI 91.5fm.. I frequently play blues jaams in albany and have a appeared on air at wrpi on the jam show saturday nights... I play rhythm/lead, my lead style is very blues rooted with some elements of shred thrown in..
