Member of the Alternative Blues band "C. O. Jones" and rock cover band "Harm's Way"
Interested in finding an acoustic partner to play fill in gigs in the Gainesville/Ocala area. Hoping to do acoustic versions of rock and blues based tunes. Originals always a plus.
I am well rounded in rock music from all eras, I am also heavily steeped in blues and jazz, but my heart is in rock. I can't do country (sorry). If interested, You can send an e-mail to my account at ericthomasmusic or call my Cell (352) 425-2936.
I live in Reddick (north of Ocala, South of Gainesville, 5 miles S of Micanopy).
