Band to Join, Vocalist, Vocalist - Tenor, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Vocalist - Alto.ABOUT
I am a seasoned and serious bassist looking for a band to play with in the local area. I play multiple genres of crowd pleasers ..50's to current rock, country, metal, funky fusion and originals. I can sing some background vocals. I play and record electric bass and work with synths well too. It would be great to be in a band where we all are friends and play well together.
