I've been a musician for most of my life. Lately I’ve been doing a lot of acoustic punk covers..just for the fun of it. I don’t own the rights to anything:) I love and play most genres. Mandolin is turning into my favorite instrument to play. I've played in several cover bands, as well as originals. I've toured all over the west coast playing ska reggae and punk and folk music.
Would like to find like minded people to jam and record with. Possibly do an acoustic duo or trio?
