SEEKING
Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Harmonica, Banjo, Mandolin, Dobro.ABOUT
Three buddies, (two of whom have played in a local rock band for years) have been doing a fun acoustic jam with upright bass, acoustic guitar, percussion, and other instruments. We play acoustic versions of 60s' through 90's songs, from Stones to more obscure stuff -The sound isn't real "bluegrassy" per se, but we like the mix of different acoustic stringed instruments used to cover a fun mix of songs. We envision playing at happy hours, coffee shops, etc. -- fun & interesting background music.
