Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Background Singer.

ABOUT

Played keys -- organ, electric & acoustic pianos, synths -- in variety of groups from motown and many flavors of rock to jazz, blues, funk and alternative. Have picked up guitar and can add some supporting rhythm.

Interested in playing everything from rootsy rock and fundamental funk to reggae, electronica and acoustic. Open to most genres and styles, but if I had to imagine or invent a sound or style, I think it would be something like Jimmy Smith & Wes Montgomery meet The Chemical Brothers and Bob Marley in a back alley.

Willing to join an existing group, just jam or build something from the ground up.
