I'm a 54 Yr old guitarist (who can pass for a log younger),singer and song writer.
I have stage experience with my former band and I am looking to play and have some fun playing original music with some covers thrown in, but I am open to paying in a cover band too, I'm just looking to play. I am not into EGO's and am just as comfortable playing rhythm or lead or both. My writing style is Classic Rock+Modern Rock+Electric Blues+Country Rock and melodic.
My musical background spans 35 years, but I have only been playing guitar(seriously) for about 7 years; though I am a strong rhythm player and can play a fairly decent lead. I am not a shredder and have no desire to be. My guitar rig(s) are of professional caliber and quality as is my sound gear. I have strong vocal ability, can read and write music and can harmonize by ear.
