Crusty old goth looking for artistic collaborator to compose/create original material. Vocalist. Preferably female. Preferably also a guitarist or bassist.
Shoegazey, spacey, folky, ambient, soulful...with a dash of discordance.
Create, record, I'm down for shows. Fun, no drama or rock star BS.
THE CATCH
or why I suck.
I have rheumatoid arthritis in my feet and I do not drive. My days of hopping the train to NYC to rehearse are over. I need someone who is willing to rehearse and create in my studio apartment, which is literally a studio. I have a cat and all the gear we need right here. If you are an instrumentalist you may use my gear. Bring nothing. If it does become on the regular I will even pay for gas expenses.
I'm mad skittish around new people.
I WILL make many many mistakes during our first jams, until I feel comfortable with you. The more we play together the better I get.
If we do play live (and I want to) I'm sitting in a chair.
I use to do this professionally from 1998-2007. Toured. Recorded. Travelled. Moved crowds. Been doing bands since 1987.

I am no shreddy McGee. I hate show offs. I do not care if you are a better player than I. I have zero music theory knowledge. Self taught. Timing like a metronome. Great ear.
Ego interrupts the spiritual connection to The Source, I want music from the soul, the heart, the subconscious, not the intellect.
No I don't want to join your band, go on tour, make money or get famous.
