Keeping Things Dead Simple.
In 2019, I took a chance on my hobby of guitar playing and joined the four-piece classic rock band Dead Simple as a rhythm guitarist. Dead Simple was started by the bassist, Paul, in Nanticoke, PA in 2008. Paul assembled the current version of the band after moving to Elysburg, PA. During my tenure with Dead Simple, I have transitioned from playing rhythm guitar to performing lead vocals and lead guitar.

This is a setup I came to after approximately two years of trial and error. It allows me to semi-accurately reproduce the sounds of the bands that Dead Simple covers.
