SEEKING

Band to Join, Vocalist - Soprano, Drums, Keyboard, Vocalist - Alto.

ABOUT

I have been playing guitar for about twenty years, self-taught, and most of that time acoustic and casually learning. I have excellent feel for my instrument, and can easily adapt to different styles, but I'm not a technical speed shredder.

Until recently I was in a Boulder based 80's cover band. It was tremendous fun, very fulfilling. One day everybody just quit. I was pissed. My primary mission is to rebuild a new band, and I am seeking like minded musicians who would be interested in being part of a high energy, tight, fun and exciting 80's cover band to work, gig and grow.

I am not interested in covering all the most obvious hits. I'm more interested in covering lesser known favorites. A variety of synth pop, new wave, and guitar rockers.

If this does not come together, I am secondarily interested in joining any musical outfit as a guitarist. I have my interests, but feel free to contact me if you need a guitarist and we can talk.

I am no bullsh*t, mature, responsible, reliable, upbeat.
