SEEKING
Rhythm Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Upright bass.ABOUT
I am the founder of The Rocketz, vocals, guitarist and song writer. I have also played upright bass for my band because it's easier to hire guitarist who can play my parts. I would love to have a permanent drummer and bassist (both upright slapper and electric) who can also sing backing vocals. I love to play live and I try to play as much as possible without saturating the market so I take a lot of out town and weekend runs and also try to tour as much as possible (Before the pandemic). I can also sit in on upright bass if needed for rockabilly, honk tonk, blues, country, psychobilly and various sub genres but not free form jazz, those Cats are crazy good and that's not in my wheelhouse. You can contact me therocketzband on the primary google email or via FB The Rocketz IG therocketz
