Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Other.ABOUT
Trying to get back into bands. Lately, I've been plunging back into the music scene. I was active about 5 years ago in Hampton Roads as bassist for a groove metal band. I've been on a real punk kick lately and feel like the scene needs some more punk. I grew up on Prog and Metal, have played drums since I was 13, Bass since I was 15 or 16. I'm married with a kid and in the Navy, so currently I'm just looking to jam and see if anyone wants to write some badass music with me, no big commitment just yet. I need to feel that spark first. I like to sing, and I'm quite versatile n my taste of music.
