ABOUT

I've playing guitar since 1993 but only starting commiting a few hours a day to it a couple of years ago, but have got to be a pretty decent lead guitarist. I am looking to either form a country or blues band, or even a classic rock band. I believe country and or blues and CR will be the easiest to book a lot of gigs with . I have a four octave range and sing Joe Bonamassa and Ian Moore and Chris Isaak and Kenny Wayne Shepard, and SRV fairly decent , along with a number of other blues and rock and alternative acts . I do a good jason aldean and zac brown ,
. Can do Elvis well cause I have a very deep speaking voice , but can sing into the 4 th octave so I can hit some high notes . I am self taught at everything , so am more than willing to listen to to any advice given. I haven't sang in front of large crowds since HS choir tho. I want to form a band as myself as lead guitarist but would actual prefer a covocalist that I harmonize well with . I'm fully committed to this and hours and hours a day playing and learning , it's all I talk about and think about . Don't know why I waited soong other than it just wasn't time. Now it's the time .
