Band to Join, Drums.ABOUT
Starting a band with two friends, one plays a mean keyboard, one is learning bass, and play guitar ok. Looking for a drummer, open to a lead guitarist but not required. Message me OR e-mail me at centeno.scott.
Been playing guitar for a year and a half. Sang in choir through high school and college so I had some music theory already. Looking to make music!

Loop Practice
Loop Practice Genre: Other
Practicing looping the guitar in three layers with stings from my piano as the fourth layer. Ideally, the loops would come in sooner in each iteration, but I had to think my way through before looping in the wrong key.
