Raj + Musician in Santa Fe, NM

ABOUT

- I don't have the time to commit to weekly band practice but am open to casual jams

- Indie rock and instrumentals are my favorite genres

- Easy going bassist, comfortable playing originals and covers

- Savvy enough to edit band videos, design and create website (renegade.band), write content, design posters, recruit band mates and reach out to venues gigs

- Come from the mindset that the bass is a foundational instrument that supports the song and other musicians, and that very few people are interested in listening to bass solos

- Prefer finger style, happy to use picks, but slapping isn't my thing

- Understand music theory and can read music, have some studio experience too

- Love most genres of music from indie rock to folk, blues, experimental, and in any language

- Current and past music collaborations include classic rock, blues, indie, surf, Latin and Asian bands
