ABOUT

I'm really into a lot more than just the three genres listed. I listen to, and try to play, lot's of music and lots of instruments, but am most accomplished at straight up blues/country guitar. I'm working on becoming a more soulful player. Been working with a local songwriter(with a great voice), and we're looking for a drummer, bass player, and keyboard player to form a (FUN)band...We're looking to gig maybe once a week or so, as we both also enjoy our day jobs, but might be open to more.
