SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Currently I am a (mostly) bluegrass musician, especially enthusiastic about harmony and lead vocals.
I played folk music most of my life . My main strength has always been vocals. I have played guitar for those many years - basic picking and rhythm to support my singing.
In 2005 I learned to play the mandolin and switched over to bluegrass music, especially taken with the fabulous vocal harmonies in bluegrass . Since then I have greatly enjoyed singing and playing mandolin in 3 successful bluegrass bands. I would love to sing and play in a band again, or even smaller group (3 part harmony blends?)
