Hi everyone! My name's Ryan, and I'm an amateur musician trying to get a group together to play in the Triad area this summer. (I work for a university study abroad program in Italy for half the year, so I'm basically gone from September to May).
I've been playing music for years, but over the last three I've gotten into more acoustic, folk, and country. I was in an Irish band for a couple of years in Greenville, NC, but otherwise haven't had much success getting lasting groups together.
I'd basically just like to play gigs in the area for fun, and maybe a little bit of beer money or whatever. If you're interested in playing, get in touch with me! I'll take basically anyone interested in the kinds of music I'm talking about.
