MarvP72 + Musician in Royal Oak, MI

SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm looking to join or form a group of talented musicians with the intent of playing live in front of an audience. Do not want to be stuck in a basement or garage playing for kicks. Not into metal, pop, hip hop etc. I'm 62 and have been around the block musically. That said I like rock and roll, blues, jazz, country or a mixture of those. I like to jam and improvise and can rip off a good solo now and then! 😎 Willing to give things a try. Starting or joint a band is like dating you have to go out a few times to see if you're compatible. Give me a shout if you're interested.
