ABOUT

Songwriter, looking for musicians to collaborate with, and general accompaniment. My main instruments the guitar, and I sing. To be specific, I'm a Tenor, and I mostly play rhythm guitar, because I sing at the same time. So I need another guitarist, bass player, drummer, and someone on keys/synth. I'd like for at least 1 member to be female. She needs to play an instrument, and sing backup vocals. I am open to do a duet type of thing, and let her have some lead vocal parts.
