Pedal Steel Guitarist
I am located in the Phoenix/Mesa, Arizona area.
I am seeking a Professional Band, Duo situation, Recording Studio work, etc. I am willing to Tour...as well as Relocate.
*** Also, I am Currently looking for a Lead Vocalist who plays Guitar *** This is for a Special DUO situation, playing at Assisted Living Facilities/Senior Citizens Facilities, Memory Care, Music Therapy, etc. It Pays VERY WELL, & the set is only 45-60 minutes long. Gigs/Shows...can start almost immediately!
I plan to do 1-2 shows a day, 2-4 days a week. It is easy work...& is all LOCAL, in the Phoenix/Mesa, Arizona area. I can do this SOLO, with a portable audio system, backing me up....BUT, I would prefer having someone to perform with. I am not a front man at all...& having someone with some Front Man/Microphone experience, would be Ideal.. These will be CONSISTENT gigs...on a REGULAR BASIS, during the day. Leaving your nights free.
Note: My Number has changed, since the one listed on "Carmelita," It is now: 480-694-7961
Thanks!
