ABOUT

Mature hobby-at-home musician 64 looking for people (male or female) in or around Sutton / Merton to get together for fun and music. I like acoustic mixes / vocal harmonies / nice sounds with a bit of attitude. Occasional power riffs.

I can turn my hand to a range of styles and instruments (guitars, mandolin, ukelele, charango). My music knowledge is quite good (50 years and counting), not formal, and my on-stage skills need some development as I have never gigged properly (only open mics).

I'd like to work with people with similar skills and motivations.

I have some self-penned material, although only ever performed at open mics (got an applause).. I hope to make some short demo tracks soon.

I'd like eventually to be able to play live and hold an appreciative audience for at least an hour.
