I have 2 active bands at the moment and looking to start a third. My band Nomad Sky is a gypsy folk band currently consisting of Guitar/Vocals, Bass and Violin. Ideally, I'm looking for someone who is comfortable on guitar, banjo and either mandolin or fiddle. I play guitar and banjo and I'd like someone to switch off with rather than having one dedicated role. I'm also interested in finding a keyboard or Accordian player for this group. I have a bunch of material and a deal set up with Mambo Studio for recordings. I have some solid connections to the industry and I'm looking to fill up my crew and polish the sound before launching.
I'm also looking to start another group that will be kind of a bluegrass/folk punk band. Mainly looking for strings but I'd love to find someone to write with as I write all the material for my other 2 bands. I have songs we can start off with but I'm really looking for someone to bounce back and forth with creatively.

Members Of Band
Nomad Sky has me, a bass player and a violin player
The band I'm looking to build from scratch starts with me, looking for great additions but I do have plenty of resources available for other musicians. I want to do an only string band with the possibility of horns.
