SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I’m a singer/songwriter and producer from the Bay Area and that has been playing in bands and making records on the peninsula for the last 15 years. I’m mainly a lead guitar player and singer but I play a few other things as well.
I like a lot of different types of music. I’ve mostly played in indie bands but I love folk music of all varieties. Sometimes I like to get wacky with it and blend styles together ?
