SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I'm a bassist in my 50s looking for a working band. Former bassist for the KLOU Olides Band, but I can play all styles and am very flexible and committed. Not into drama. I can harmonize to anything as a backing voicalist and can sing leads if the key is right.

I sing lead on the House is Rockin' sections and harmonize in the "Johnny B. Goode" section. I'm not a "shouter," but i sing on key.

Peacefuly Easy Feeling
I sing lead here. I can do it when the song is in my key. Kind of a basic vanilla voice quality, but on key.

All backing harmonies here. Particularly note the syncopated backup toward the end of the song.
