SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Harmonica, Banjo, Mandolin, Fiddle, Dobro, Steel guitar.ABOUT
I'd like to form or join a folk or country duo/trio. I'm retired now and play a lot of coffeehouses, festivals, churches, picnics, etc. I write a lot of my own music, which is pretty nostalgic. Lots of stuff about family, friends, winners, losers, and living life. I also do some covers.......Cash, Dylan, Ian Tyson, America, Blue Eyes Crying in The Rain, Four Strong Winds and other classic country and folk songs. Most all of my songs are folk, country, soft and classic
R&R. I have a lot of fun playing, but am also serious about joining a duo/trio for performing around this area. I typically play music
every single day. Some days more than others. I gig every week.
Been playing one location every week for almost seven years and
another every month for over three years. I also play at festivals,
church, parties, etc.
