SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a psychologist and I work full-time in the field as a psychotherapist. The nature of my profession allows me to have some flexibility with my time/schedule. Thus, I am able to make it to band practice and, of course, gigs, 3-5x/week. I've been told that I am a "really good bass player" "great bass player""fast and versatile in my playing" and a bunch of other complements, but I really don't care. I just love playing my bass guitar and there is nothing more awesome than grooving!!!!!!
