Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Keyboard.ABOUT
Hi, I'm a bass player in NYC who's ready to play... now. Looking to form or join band mostly covering songs we love... either true(ish) versions or rearrangements. And if the spirit leads: develop some original material either learn your existing rep, craft supportive parts, co-write, or present original material.
