About
Seeking country/bluesy/roots/ Americana type band with emphasis on good, solid songs and musicianship.I am a superb slide player having developed my own hybrid style of playing slide as to adapt to most forms of music.Playing the right notes at the right time speak volumes rather than mindless riffing.I am a well experienced musician having played in London, New York , Detroit, etc. and recently flew back to London to play a memorial gig at the 100 Club for an old bandmate who passed away alongside former members of Bad Company, Jeff Beck, Moody Blues, Mick Taylor, Denny Newman and others.I am a resident Brit living in Phoenix and aswell as doubling on "regular" guitar, I can sing high harmony and some lead vocals.Totally reliable and dependable.
Phone 480 634 6504 anytime.
I also run the LONGEST RUNNING OPEN MIC in Phoenix at FATSO'S PIZZA located at 32nd.st. & Thunderbird, Phoenix. This is an ACOUSTIC VENUE and a great place for acoustic singer/songwriters to show their stuff.This OPEN MIC is every THURSDAY and start time is 6pm and runs to 9.30pm approx.Great stage and sound system. All you need to bring is your instrument(s) and your songs.Best ACOUSTIC OPEN MIC around.
