Looking to make sweet, sweet music and woo the masses with a variety of dulcet tones. I've played in various bands over the years both originals and covers, all of which were gigging. Suffice to say there's multitudes more fun to be had with originals although I'd never rule out a few covers to get the ball rolling. Have recorded with a few bands from ropey home studio attempts, to proper recording studio, click tracks etc. There's very few styles of music that I'd have no time for, so don't be off put by what I've listed in influences. The world is our oyster... If i had one wish it would be for a bassist who plays bass and not the criminally common situation of a guitarist who will throw a hand to bass. You drummers will know what I mean.

Influences
I do like the bit of metal. Mastodon, Deftones, Pantera, jaysus even some Gojira. But couldn't leave out Biffy, Brand New, Muse, Mars Volta, QOTSA. "Oh but Killian, what of grunge?" I hear you ask. Well it wouldn't be Christmas without Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, AIC. None of which would exist without all that 60's and 70's magic. Not to mention the lighter side of life including Elbow, Jeff Buckley and Jamiroquai. Seen as we're being honest Massive Attack and Portishead also do things to me! And everything inbetween!!

EQUIPMENT
Pearl export, a work horse.
With a sprinkling of Zildjians, for effect.
Have drum mics, to capture the magic.
Have my own transport, which contributes in no way to my sound, but is necessary just the same.
