SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist.ABOUT
I've been playing blues/rock guitar for over 30 years and have been playing in a gigging band over the last 14 years. I also play in a praise band at our church every Sunday. Recently have started writing music for our band and for church. It is mostly blues with Christian lyrics. I would like to continue to explore this with other Christian blues musicians. I have recently retired from my day job and I am also looking for another gigging blues band, or (preferably) a blues duet.
I am available to practice days as well as evenings. Days are actually preferred.

Although grounded in the blues, the music is fairly diverse. The songs and album are available on CD Baby. The name of the band is The CTS Praise Band. it was posted on Dec 18. I hope you enjoy it.
