Band to Join.

ABOUT

Vocalist for band in College. Mostly covers. I studied Acting/Film/Philosophy. Since then have played in 3 bands, covers and originals. I am a good lyricist, but do not want to, nor wish to write every song. I'm looking for a true, honest, and sincere collaborative effort to write original songs, with another person, or with a whole band. I tend to write best, and am most comfortable, with an acoustic guitar in hand. NO EGO'S is a necessity for me. I'm amiable, laid back, and enjoy experimenting with music. I'm still learning my craft as a song writer/composer, and am open to all ideas and interpretations, I adapt well, and learn songs quickly. On the personal side, I am grounded, married, and stable with a 3 yr. old boy. 248 629 9692, elwood.blues
