Biography

Though I play an assortment of different instruments I prefer to play guitar. I am into all sorts of different genres: jazz, indie, math-rock, post-punk, industrial, jam, alternative, ambient, emo, metal etc, etc, anything original i can appreciate. I enjoy music with a lot of dynamic texture, slow and quiet then progressively getting louder and faster with a climax. I also enjoy more chaotic less structured music. Music that still has coherence but can wander off into newly undiscovered territory that may have never been achieved without trying something new and unique. I am very passionate about what i do musically, finding that chemistry with those who have a similar outlook has been a vigorous endeavor that experience has shown takes both time and patience. I would like to experience a jam with as many different musicians as possible until my hunger for creating music is satisfied with the best possible match. This is a very limited cross-section of bands i am influenced by at this point: Radiohead, Phish, Alexisonfire, American Football, Murder by Death, Appleseed Cast, Early Day Miners, Bear vs. Shark, Coldplay, Incubus, Jimi Hendrix, Mogwai, Mono, Pink Floyd, Saosin, The Album Leaf, The Mercury Program, Tristeza, Evidence, Goo Goo Dolls, Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Logh, Air, John Tesh, Tortoise, Death Cab for Cutie, Victor Wooten, Tool, James Taylor, Yes, The Duo, Don Ross, BT, Lymbic Systym, Opeth, The Six Parts Seven, Sigur Ros, Explosions in the Sky, Jimi Hendrix, Tom Waits, Death Cab for Cutie, Wilco, Clint Mansell etc.... If you want to jam contact Josh by email guitarsmurf22@gmail.com or contact aol username guitarsmurf22.

Biography

I am what most would classify as a closet musician. I've been playing guitar for about 25 years and while I've played in bands, it's been years since I've been on a stage.

I listen to mainly classic rock and am influenced by Van Halen, AC/DC, Cheap Trick, and other bands of the like.

What I have been doing with my spare time is a lot of writing and recording. I play everything from piano and guitar to drums and bass - some better than others.

Biography

I grew up listening to a boatload of music from the 70's. The first concert I ever went to was a KISS show back in December of 1977. Judas Priest was the opening band - what an eye-opening experience. A bare-bones, 3-piece, Ludwig, was the first kit I ever owned. How bare bones was it? Kick, tom, snare - and one crash cymbal. And let me tell you...The J. Geils Band's Love Stinks song sounded epic on this kit. I've owned a Tama, and (now) a Pearl set since - and have a few more drums, and cymbals, these days. Self-taught - I always had a keen sense of rhythm. Also, my air guitar solos are unreal. Some (mostly) likes and not so much...Bun E. Carlos...less is more. Neil Peart...more with more. Terry Bozzio...less with more and highly overrated. Tre' Cool - rock on. Jeff Campitelli - the metronome. John Bonham - is THE man. Keith Moon - what a looney, but he could play like the dickens. Steve Smith - don't stop believin. Phil Collins - can play AND sing. Alex Van Halen - bring back the roto toms/dragon drums. Dave Grohl - who woulda thunk. Stewart Copeland - can play and talk your ear off. Matt Cameron - some great beats and is rock solid.
