Lead Guitar, Keyboard, Background Singer.

ABOUT

NEED A LEAD GUITARIST! one that is versatile and can learn songs accurately and relatively quickly. Would also like to find a rhythm guitarist and/or keyboardist that does vocals also. Would be playing a variety of covers from Rush, A Flock Of Seagulls, Weezer to Young The Giant and Neon Trees. Take a look at the picture with the song list. Those are some examples of what I play and sing. I play bass guitar and sing. I like playing classic rock, 80's, 80's rock, 90's, 2000's and newer rock and some pop music. And I guess you can say "alternative" music. Not interested in originals, oldies, blues or overplayed "standards". I like to make the songs sound as authentic as possible with dynamics and professionalism, but still have fun! Music for an age range of 40's and younger. A lot of These songs are songs that other bands have not overplayed but are still very well known.
