I'm a singer/songwriter looking to put together a dynamic group. My ideal band will be a chill group of people with similar influences and a shared motivation to create solid music. I want to put a band to my original songs and collaborate on songwriting and covering great songs that don't get covered very often. I play out a lot solo and I'm also the lead singer/rhythm guitar in a cover band. I want to turn my solo act into a group with the intention of touring next year. I need people who are willing to get out and get gigs, promote online, sit on for hours making comments, go to shows all over and network, and do some of the business foot-work that I've been trying to do alone. Also, musical creativity and synergy are vital. If you want to play out in front of people and work to build a following, please respond!
