Coming out of semi-retirement. Most recently in a rock cover band on guitar/bu vox that got killed by covid (foo fighters, pretenders, midnight oil, other eclectic rock). We rehearsed 2x week and were setting up gigs prior to shutdown. Had to take time off to deal with a family issue, but starting to wake up again.
Previous gig was on keyboards in an original band doing Americana styled original rock, Petty/Stones influenced style that was honorably mention in "best of Worcester" poll a few years ago. Played professionally for 20 years before taking 10 years off, so just getting back into the scene. Looking for something to have fun with, but still high quality. In earlier years played in cover bands (50 gigs/year), but of my later experience was in bands writing, performing and recording original material in the Boston club scene.
While most of my experience is on bass, I'm a competent keyboardist and guitarist with good equipment like to consider myself very musical and versatile. Would love to get to know local people to jam.
Audio is original song I wrote and performed guit/bass/keys and lead vocals on to give you a feel for influences.
