Zip 100
The band is me. I have been a musician since age 7 (i'm 44 now), and that's pretty much all I did. By age 32 I was working in an average of 6 bands at a time and still practicing 36 hours a week. That's when I got nerve damage in both my arms and couldn't use them for 5 years...not for eating, lifting, playing...anything. 2 surgeries and 3 more years recoup, and I am back in short bursts. I write and track everything in 1 take as I can't play for long.
Guitar is my main instrument (studied it the most), but have been playing drums and bass since age 10, and have actually worked the most as a drummer. I can't really use my left arm much so i drum with my fingers. It gives it a unique sound. (Don't worry, it's not wimpy... I can still break sticks!)
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
As much as possible. Mostly Jazz
Your musical influences
UK, Kansas, Bill Bruford, Miles Davis, Stan Getz, Dream Theater, The Cars, Kraftwerk, Jeff Beal...and all those I have had the fortune of playing with.
What equipment do you use?
Anything that makes a sound...
