ABOUT

"OLD FOLK' 'S BOOGIE " I'm trying to form a new group of older musicians and am looking for a guitarist, Keyboard Player / Singer, and drummer over 50 who sings some lead and background harmonies to play for fun and profit. Please no rock star wana bees with egos or attitudes. We are all older guys who play great and still enjoy playing and the camaraderie of playing in a band. We rehearse once a week in Clayton, NJ where I have a full music room and lounge (Man Cave) If we get good enough we might want area we may want to eventually play outone a month.

Influences

Classic Rock from the 50's through 80's plus some more recent material..I am an excellent bassist and my high harmonies I'v bee told I sound a lot like Timothy B. Schmidt of the Eagles. I Love Country Rock / Country bands like POCO, The Byrds, and Souther, Hillman, and Furay. Recently very interested in the "Laurel Caynon Sound" of the 60's and 70's.
