Looking to jam, groove and play some tunes, see if there is chemistry and a mutual understanding about what it is we are trying to achieve and where we are trying to go, then we can explore further. I’m into American roots styles and down-home style Blues, Slide, Alternate Tunings, Finger-style, Off-Beats, Timing’s & Hawaiian Slack… Original material is fine if it’s interesting and grooves. If you’re of the singer-songwriter tradition we probably are not a match.
