SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a career musician with over 30 years experience in Classic Rock and over 20 years in Musical Theatre with almost 90 'Opening Nights' to my credit.
I play with 2 different bands at the moment and do 4-5 musicals a year.
Musical Theatre shows end around 10, so I can play 8-10 shows a week because Rock gigs start later.
I would play 7 days a week if I had the gigs.
