Sgt_Pepper + Band in Camas, WA

ABOUT

Seeking band or musicians to perform cover classic rock, blues, country rock, R&B or Soul. Any combination of those genres are cool.

About me: I'm a professional keyboardist/guitarist/bassist seeking band or musicians to play Classic Rock, Blues, Country Rock, R&B, etc. I was a full-time professional touring musician in the 70's and 80's and played all the hotel and club circuits (e.g. Red Lion, Holiday Inn, Redwood Inn, etc). Also part of a power-trio (keys/bass, drums, guitar) house band in Lake Oswego the Beach-Comber. Played there for two years, six nights a week.

Over the past 20 year I've been performing with Northwest blues, soul, country and classic rock bands in the Seattle area. Now living in the Portland/Vancouver area.

I've played rock, jazz, blues, R&B, funk, country rock and southern rock. I'm looking for a group of easy going mature professional individuals who want to gig a few times a month.

My main interests are Classic Rock, Soul, R&B and Blues. I've play keys (50+ years) as my main instrument and also play guitar (40+ years) and sing lead and harmonies.

Recently keyboardist/guitarist for Seattle blues-rock band 'Mojo Overload' performing for venues like Seattle Hard Rock Cafe, Evergreen State Fair, King County Fair, 88 Keys, Tacoma Blues Festival, Tulalip Resort Casino, Bite Of Seattle, Willamette Valley Vineyards, JazzBones, etc. Reverb Nation: search for Mojo Overload...

Recent projects include; Keyboardist for 'Horns of Soul' a 13 piece Chicago, Tower of Power soul band from Vancouver, WA. Also recent lead guitarist for 60s British Invasion band - Veteran Cosmic Rockers. Recently Keyboardist for Blues Rock band West Coast Heaters and 60's band 'Blue Light'...
