Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
I have recently relocated to Knoxville from Pennsylvania. I've met some really good musicians but so far, haven't found a suitable situation. I've performed and recorded with various bands for over 25 years. I'm looking for a working cover band (Rock, Metal, Blues, some Country) in the Knoxville area that plays 1-4 times weekly. I have experience in both large and small venues opening for national acts such as Molly Hatchet and Three Dog Night. I am not opposed to a cover/original setting.
Yes, I've been called a 'shredder' but I am not an Yngwie wanna-be. I play from the heart!

MUSIC

Hocus Pocus (Focus Cover)
Hocus Pocus (Focus Cover) Genre: Classic Rock
A quick 'spur of the moment' recording done at home. All tracks were first takes....warts and all.
-
God Rest Ye Merry Guitars
God Rest Ye Merry Guitars Genre: Metal
Another 'quick' one. I kind of combined some Boston, Queen and others into this original Christmas Instrumental.
-
Seperate Ways Solo
Seperate Ways Solo
I recorded this for a friend but she never got to record the vocals. I played everything except for the drums (I programmed them....LOL) It's slightly faster than the original but......oh, well.

You've Got Another THing Coming (Judas Preist Cover)
You've Got Another THing Coming (Judas Preist Cover)
I did this in early 2013 using a backing track from Backingtrack.com which is a cool site that allows you to download the actual songs without the guitar tracks. It's a great little site. I DID forget to add a little guitar lead part in the bridge but again....oh, well. I was just doing this for fun!

Hit Me WIth Your Best Shot (Pat Benetar Cover)
Hit Me WIth Your Best Shot (Pat Benetar Cover) Genre: Cover/Tribute
Another 'backing track' song that I played with Flyin Blind. Again, this was just for fun.
-
Doing Something Right (Country Original)
Doing Something Right (Country Original) Genre: Country
This is a country song I wrote for my wife. I just uploaded the solo because I had bronchitis when I sang it and I DON'T have a country 'twang' to my voice....LOL! It IS however a product of having been exposed to country music my whole life.
