Please check out my bands and other projects at myspace.com/unearthedrevelation, myspace.com/crunchmetal, myspace.com/metalmikegann, myspace.com/sovietdeathwagon, myspace.com/muthika, and myspace.com/reson8rocks.
I am the bassist for classic hard rock 'n' roll cover band CRUNCH, and bassist for a progressive metal band called UNEARTHED REVELATION. It features the Grunwald brothers, formerly members of the legendary Fallen Empire. I've also been working with Sacred Reign guitarist/vocalist Mike Gann's project called STRIVING FOR MORE, recording drums and bass, and also drums to Daniel Holland's (ex-Calcabrina, current NonGrata bassist) project called SOVIET DEATH WAGON. I was also the drummer in RESONATE and MUTHIKA, but even though one morphed into the other, they didn't last. But you never know what may happen. Previous bands I've been involved with that you've never heard of were TWISTED HALO (see the aforementioned two bands), TUNA WIGGLE, BORDER PATROL, DAZED EDGE, HOLLYWOOD DAWGS, etc.
