ABOUT

Ideal situation would be a cover band (R&B/Soul, Blues, Classic Rock) with some emphasis on writing/recording original tunes as well. I am realistic in knowing no $$$ can really be generated here, but do have a strong passion for writing.

I however, do not want to be in a professional rehearsal band. Occasional rehearsals are a given at first (as well as any songwriting rehearsals), but once everyone is up to speed on covers, we should be able to show up to gigs and play. I apologize if this sounds a bit snotty, but I'm just for maximum fun with minimal work and little aggrevation in regards to covers. Speaking of aggrevation, I'm not looking to be the main promoter of the band, nor do I want to rehearse for months on end towards non-existant gigs. I am a family man with a job, and don't have a need for this as my personal income.

I want to have fun as should you!

Sound samples are previous projects I was involved in and can provide more upon request.
