SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Saxophone.ABOUT
I've played professionally and played with bands in the studio and on stage from Vancouver B.C. to Chicago. My main passion is the blues, but I'm into all other kinds of music, I love country as well. Anything as long as it has feeling. All of my instruments have been hand wired and set up by myself. I am a very serious musician and am looking to start or join a band that wants to play local clubs and record. Though I respect playing in the hardest time signature or discussing theory for hours I'm seeking other musicians that just want to write and play music that makes your body shake, mouth smile, and eyes water. Soul!
