SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a bass and rhythm guitar player looking for a band to perform covers or originals at local venues, parties, and events. I am okay playing rock tunes, but I would really like to play reggae, blues, soul, and funk inspired music. I would like to play with individuals of similar ages and similar goals. I want to grow as a musician and I am willing to put the work in to arrange, practice, receive and give feedback, and rehearse. My goal is to play locally with a band that plays tight, is well-rehearsed, and plays music people want to move and sing along to.
