----------------------------------------------------------------
I am seeking to start or join a band here in the Huntsville AL area.
Ideally I want to do Progressive/Heavy Rock with Christian themes. Notice I do not say "Christian Rock" or "Contemporary Christian" because those styles conjure up images of generally substandard musicianship (after all - name one CCM bassist as good as Geddy), repetitive chord progressions that have been played out, and oversimplified lyrics that do not delve into the deeper thoughts of faith.
HOWEVER - I am open to all styles and would like to branch out into doing some modern jazz, country-western, jam band type material.......most anything. IF I'M PLAYING - I'M HAPPY!!
So that's it - deep lyrics and good musicianship - that's what I'm looking for.
I believe in a strong work ethic on this, where music is more than a hobby. I prefer originals, but I am not averse to some covers.
Let's play some music!!
