+## 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.
