I am looking to get together with any musicians who want to develop some solid sets of classic rock and Americana tunes and look for places to play out. I live in Waterford, and have a rehearsal space, drums and PA, though I'm willing to travel to rehearsals and gigs. I'm a pretty good lead singer, but willing to sing back up as well, and I would love to focus on great harmonies.
