SEEKING
Other, Piano, Keyboard, Other Percussion, Drums.ABOUT
We are a band of music lovers looking for people down to play. We want to hear your ideas, and try to make some amazing sounds. Right now we use guitars, but are open to any other types of instrumentation. We have experience playing clubs and touring, and have a moderate sized catalog of original songs. Again, we love music and are looking for anyone that wants to play with us and make some awesome original songs. We would love to play your songs.
Don't pay attention to our location on the profile. We are willing to travel to play, right now we are based on Long Island and in Northern Westchester but if you got a spot we will go there.
Please note that our name is silly right now, I just wanted it to catch people's eyes. Also, the gear list may be wrong, but I assure you we have awesome equipment so don't fret (get it, a guitar joke!)
