Hello! My name is John Pronk ("Klink" is my nickname)and I play guitar (electric and acoustic)I teach 5 string bluegrass banjo, harmony vocals and drums. The audio track is of "Sunrize in the West" a western swing song I wrote that was sung by my friend Daria McBee and a bluegrass band I was a member of in Dallas, Tx. The video clips are of me playing lead guitar on the old standard: "Alabama Jubilee" and banjo on a song I wrote entitled: "High Country". There's also a version of the old Carter family song "You are My Flower" on which I sing and play fingerstyle guitar. I hope you like them! Both are on DVD's our band made in Dallas. I write songs in many styles. I sing all harmony parts by ear as long as in my range (2nd tenor/baritone). rock to jazz standards blues to bluegrass and I really enjoy any music style just as much as the next!
If need be, I can "one man band" playing bass drum and high hat and guitar or banjo to accompany a vocalist in a small restaurant venue. I own all pro equipment and a p.a. system.
I would love to find a group in need of a guitarist/backup vocalist (any music style)and/or a female vocalist who wants to tackle a varied repotoire of standards and classic rock/country and jazz; even R&B would be a blast! Bluegrass and/or traditional Gospel is also a favorite of mine. I am retired, so I'm available to practice and perform around your schedules. I also can travel.
call me or write and let's tune 'em up! thanks for reading my profile! JNP
