Overview

I’m a Los Angeles–based multi-instrumentalist specializing in drums, guitar, and bass, available for live gigs and studio sessions. I focus on musicality, tone, and adaptability, bringing a professional and creative approach to every project. My abilities to learn and adapt are some of my biggest strengths and I can get a song learned quickly.

My guitar style is influenced by David Gilmour and Robert Fripp, with expressive, atmospheric lead work. On drums, I draw from Phil Collins and Keith Moon, combining groove, energy, and dynamic feel.

Reliable, versatile, and easy to work with—ready to step into live or studio settings.

What to expect

I can offer guitar, bass or drum playing on a recording or fill in for a band. I can also help with songwriting, production and overall arrangement of a track. Again, Logic Pro is my strong suit but I have skills in other DAWs as well. I also have experience with video editing in Final Cut and have been doing so for over 6 years.

About

Hi I am Lance Valentine Butler! I am a multi-instrumentalist, I am an expert at Guitar, Bass and Drums.

If you're looking for a fill-in musician for a gig or recording session, I'm your guy. I have an extensive knowledge of music history and understanding of musicianship as I have almost a decade's worth of experience as a musician. I am flexible with my schedule as long as I'm given notice. I also have music engineering, songwriting and production experience on Logic Pro & Abelton.

Influences and inspiration

My main influences are David Gilmour, Phil Collins, Robert Fripp, Masayoshi Takanaka, Santana, Tony Levin, Maurice White and many others! These are some key figures that have strengthened my understanding of musicianship, playing of my instruments and songwriting. David Gilmour most specifically has had the biggest influence on my guitar playing and singing. His sound is something that captivates me to this day and one I incorporate into my playing and tone.
