ABOUT

Throwing this out there..wanting to start a new band. Prefer to practice weekly and gig locally not more than 2 times a month preferably once a month. I play rhythm and lead guitar, i have male vocal and female vocal already, just need to fill in around that. Need the basics...bass, drums, and advanced lead guitar and would love to add steel guitar and fiddle. We have sound equipment for practice and performance. Would love to play current country hits and classic country, and classic covers we all like. Secondary goal is to play for fun and have a band that is tight and can play anywhere and make some extra cash along the way. I am 65 and have played guitar my whole life. Myself and the two vocalists are Christians that love to play music so no smokey bars for us. Private parties, restaurants, wineries, festivals, and the like.
