## Influences & Style
I primarily write modern progressive rock, though with my own twist. I make heavy use of a clean piano, and occasionally strings, but not much synthesizer, and a very metal-influenced druming style despite the songs themselves not really feeling like "metal", as well as a relatively clean and high guitar style.
Some of my major influences include, in rough order:
* Rush
* Dream Theater
* Yes
* Nightwish
* Porcupine Tree
* JT Bruce
* Pink Floyd
* Genesis
* Opeth
* Rhapsody of Fire
* Big Big Train
* System of a Down
Plus countless other musicians, groups, and bands.
In terms of instruments, I'm primarily a drummer, bassist, and vocalist; my guitar and keyboard skills leave a lot to be desired, but I'm passable on both. I began primarily as a jazz drummer and self-taught guitarist playing Rush and Pink Floyd songs, before branching out into other instruments, including a year of piano lessons in my early teenage years. Since finishing school I've mostly been a hobby musician, with occasional spurts of writing and playing interspersed with periods of silence.
