SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

I'm Stephane, French, 29 and lead guitarist. I recently moved to San Francisco for a job and I'm now settled enough to join a band.

I'm interested in many types of music and since I couldn't make up my mind in picking one I'll let the music choose me. I'm mainly looking for :

Rock / Rock'n'Roll / J-Rock / Blues / Pop / Folk / Funk / Swing.
(I'm a big J-Rock fan)

But what matters to me is musicians with a strong sense of melody and who know how to control their volume.

I'm serious about my music but I have a full time job as an engineer so I'm looking for down to earth people, serious too but who know how to have fun and over 25. I'd like to rehearse once a week and gig when we get the chance to.

I've been playing guitar for 15 years, played live a lot. I also play bass, piano, ukulele and I recently started playing trumpet.

You can contact me via my be channel if you need to.
