Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Background Singer.ABOUT
Update: I’m currently in a band that is covering 60’s & 70’s rock/blues bands like Chicago, The Ides of March and Joe Cocker, etc… We also do more recent covers and are currently looking for a female backup / lead singer.
I’m looking for a group of like minded musicians to work around the Chicagoland area. I’m not currently interested in touring but would certainly consider it if the right opportunity arose.
My preference is the classic rock style, but I’m open to any suggestions or ideas.
Thank you for checking out my page!
