I'm a decent guitarist and played lead guitar (and bass and drums) in a few bands over the years. Lead guitar's what I love most but open to playing rhythm/bass too.
Am 36 and don't harbour any ambitions of making a living out playing music. I want to play for the love of creating and performing music with other people, gigging and recording.
Frequency wise I'm thinking once a fortnight, once a week max.
Genre wise likely indie/psychadelic/electronic rock or possibly jam band, and would be open to hints of electronic, funk or even gypsy jazz. A heavy metal or country focus wouldn't do it for me. Open to playing covers but generally prefer collaborative writing or improvising.
If you're a like minded musician or a group with a spot to fill then let me know!
I'm British and been in New York a little over a year. You can see/hear me playing lead (and occasionally bass) for my last band The Tyburn Tree in London (e.g. s://./watch?v=VYLCf9Udyy4 or we have a few recordings on Spotify s://open.spotify/artist/3q4h19Rhq7WTvuXa69XGUG?si=ylapChh1RoW4KyAS5103mQ)
