I've been playing with a bluegrass band and a couple other groups for a few years now, and I'm open to subbing or filling in with other groups.
I've got lots of experience with, bluegrass, classical, and jazz.
I work a 9-5 (ish) flexible telecommuting job so I can meet up for short stints during the day but I'm mostly available at night.
