At 64 Y.O., I can still jam it out with the best of them! Started playing guitar at the age of 10, played in a number of SC bands in the early 60's (Rock, R&B, Blues and beach), then quit playing to finish school, get married, have a family, career and then eventually, retirement some 40 years later. About 3 years ago, I was in a bar/music club in Mexico one night and was inspired to buy myself another ax and start playing again! Since then, I've come back (and way beyond) where I left it! Over the last 3 years, I'd been playing in a number of 'gringo' Rock and Blues bands in Mexico. I'm now back in the USA in Greenville SC and would like to get myself established with a local group. I mainly love playing Blues, but can also lead/play anything thrown at me from rock to country. You can listen to some of my songs on ./genedee
