SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist - Tenor, Bass Guitar, Trumpet, Saxophone, Keyboard, Background Singer, Vocalist - Alto, Clarinet.ABOUT
I'm a 30 year old guitarist and bassist. I love playing music with other people. I could go and do a solo acoustic set, but that just bores and depresses me. I live for the spontaneity of playing live with other musicians. I'm willing to play just about anything, but I'd prefer to avoid playing punk and most metal because I just don't enjoy it. I love the funk.
I am currently looking to join an existing Classic Rock or Blues group that is on track to be gigging in a short period of time. I learn very quickly, so getting me "up to speed" isn't a concern. Hell, the harder you make it for me, the better. I need a challenge.
In the near future I will be looking to put together a group doing what I had been doing up in Massachusetts. That project was a Jazz/Funk group with some Blues thrown in to fill time. I'll be looking for really good players for this project.
