SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Based in Bellevue, WA.
Please check my videos to get an idea of if I would be a good fit. I will do the same so we are on the same page.
Passionate guitar player with 15 years of experience with guitar and 4-5 years of gigs. I used to be in a band back in my town. However, due to work and moving couldn't keep it up.
But I never left music, and have been learning home recording, practicing guitar and also getting into new instruments e.g. synths, bass, keyboard etc
I have a daytime job, that's why I am available to gig/practice on evenings (after 5:30 pm PST). I can commit to once a week practice but can sometimes make it more if needed and if my schedule allows. Same for gigs, but I can mostly make time for gigs (2 sometimes 3 per week) since they mostly happen in evenings/nights.
Looking to join a band to enjoy music play along with! If it goes big, I wont leave the band. I will manage that into my schedule. Hit me up! and let's talk about how we match. Thanks!

MUSIC

Khud Afzudgi - Omar Waheed
Khud Afzudgi - Omar Waheed Year: 2022 Genre: Rock
Khud Afzudgi - Self Enrichment, is song on a societal issue. It highlights the role that society plays in developing/moulding an individual. This can be positive or negative based on how the society is, however there is always a chance that the certain individual and the society itself use self-enrichment as a way to improve the way things are around and within them. Examples of self enrichment include civic education, enforcing law properly, having a growth mindset, curiosity of why things are the way they are and not just follow and accept the way things are.
