Band to Join, Drums, Other Percussion, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
**UPDATE** - currently a founding member of Cryptical Sunshine; a tribute band performing the 1970's classics of the Grateful Dead. This new project features musicians from central NJ, along with northeast and south central PA. Check us out on at Cryptical Sunshine.
Originally trained as a percussionist, I have gone on to play mandolin and bass. Bass guitar has been my focus for the past few years and I have enjoyed expanding my ability and developing my style that has been strongly influenced by classic rock, jazz, blues, country, bluegrass and Americana.
Hoping to meet fellow musicians who share the love of the music and the enjoyment of jamming. Music has been and remains a therapeutic outlet, as I am dealing with chronic health issues. HofnerVince at gee mail Dot com. Check equipment list for more email info/details.
*Note - the sound clips attached to this profile are of me playing bass, along with the Grateful Dead and Dark Star Orchestra (Viola Lee Blues) performing live, in concert. I do not own the rights to any of these songs and am simply sharing examples of my playing style.
