Longtime musician. I primarily play electric bass for a living but I am also accomplished on guitar. I am available for gigs in the South Jersey/Philly area but am also available for travel if expenses are covered.
Forming rhythm section to accompany singers and other musicians. Looking for guitarists, bass players, keyboardists & drummers. Ability to read music preferred, but not essential. Must be able to learn tunes quickly. If you are interested, please message me. For those of you who are not familiar with me, I play guitar, electric bass & I sing. The plan is a rhythm section that will be available as a band in & of itself as well as a backing band available for accompaniment. Once the rhythm section is formed, we will post on , Craigslist, Band Mix (if anyone has any other suggestions, please let me know!) that we are available as a backing band or as a self-contained unit.

Influences
I play most styles of music and I can read fairly well. For cover work, I usually transcribe the original part & work around that according to what the gig requires. I have transcribed hundreds of parts from The Beatles to Hendrix to Zeppelin to Miles & more current music.
