Hi, I'm in my late 40s and live in east-central VT. I've played guitar for many years and have also played a bit of bass, banjo and other things with strings. I've been in a couple "just for fun" bands in the past and am casually looking for something on that level again. I have a day job and a family but would like to find a way to play music with others that fits around that. Happy to play covers from a variety of genres- I enjoy everything from old blues, bluegrass, jug tunes and americana right up through modern jam bands and singer-songwriters. I think I could have fun making almost any kind of music. I am most comfortable playing amplified acoustic guitar but could dust off the electric or even the bass for the right situation.
