SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Other Percussion, Trumpet, Saxophone, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
Hi!
I've been playing music and performing since childhood, and professionally playing for about 6 years now. My academic education is composed of guitar and solfage studies as well as a working degree in music.
Professionally, I played as lead guitarist and vocalist for a band in Virginia called The Alternative, and later on I was selected to go on a one year, world-wide tour as a guitarist and video engineer.
I'm interested in making a band, ideally people with experience that can talk business. Open to play covers and slowly interact with our original material. I need individuals committed to this project. Ideally individuals who can read music, or at least have a basic understanding on theory. Genres can expand to Rock and Roll to Jazz, Latin, Bossa Nova and Funk.
If interested in a project or your current project plays by these standards you can contact me at 210-563-3425.
