Any older rockers out there, (or any age for that matter), looking to form a cover band? Or perhaps you're a band of older guys/gals seeking a singer and sort of keyboard player.
I grew up in the 60's and 70's listening to the best rock music of all time. I fronted a few cover bands in and around the Chicagoland area for several years from 80's to early 2000's, but have been out for quite some time now. Itching to get back in the game, mostly for fun, and maybe play out a few times a year.
My chops have weakened, but I can still pull off some lead and/or backing vocals. I also play "some" keyboards, but not the least bit proficient. I do have a tiny studio in my home that's mostly collecting dust at the moment.
IF YOU'RE SEASONED PROS SEEKING PRO CALIBER...I'M NOT YOUR GUY! But if you're just looking to have some fun, jamming and doing occasional gigs, let's talk.
