Band to Join, Accordion, Bagpipes, Banjo, Cello, Clarinet, Dobro, Fiddle, Flute, Harp, Mandolin, Steel guitar, Trombone, Upright bass.ABOUT
Seeking fame and fortune, or at least to make good friends in the area. Been playing guitars for about 18 years, singing for about 12. Roughly 2 years' touring experience, many years' busking experience. Hopefully my influences will say enough about my style. I'd like to think that I'm pretty flexible around those genres.
