Versatile Nashville Guitarist for Hire for $100

I've been playing guitar for the past 20 years and have been living and working in Nashville, Tennessee for the past seven. Currently I play in Crystal Gayle's touring band and play around town with a few different projects. Some other singers I've worked with include: Amanda Raye, Charlie McCoy, Derryl Perry, Cullen Wade, Colleen Orender, Tim Andrews, Matthew Welde, Jessica Terrell, Wila Frank, and Emily Clement. I studied jazz and music business at the University of Miami from 2012 to 2016 and recorded my debut solo record, Aces, shortly after graduating.

Country and jazz music are generally my main focus, but I'm very influenced by blues, Motown, 50s-60s rock and roll, and all kinds of Americana and other roots-influenced music. So I'm pretty eclectic and I find myself listening to bits of everything! I'm very drawn to different guitar tones and even really enjoy more experimental/noise-oriented guitar stylings if the situation calls for it. I play electric guitar and acoustic guitar equally often, and somewhat specialize in some of the more niche guitar sounds, including: acoustic and electric 12-string, high strung/Nashville tuned guitar parts, electric sitar, baritone guitar, slide guitar, gypsy jazz and more. Oh, and I play banjo and occasional other instruments too! I have a good number of vintage and modern guitars and amplifiers and several ribbon, dynamic, and condenser mic options.

The session fee covers all the necessary parts for one track, and I'm happy to talk over the phone or via video chat beforehand to talk about what parts and sounds we're going after.
