29M. Recently moved to Leeds permanently and looking to start a band.
I'm a lead guitarist, originally classically trained and considered doing this as a career but took other routes. Have played in a few casual bands over the years. Now work a busy full time job but looking to start a band - would not be able to commit to intensive practice schedule but keen to make some music and play some gigs.
Some recordings of classical guitar I made a while ago: https://alasdairmayer.bandcamp/releases
And an old band I played in at uni, I play lead guitar: https://thejamboys.bandcamp/track/fishermans-blues-cover
If anyone is keen to meet up for a jam and see where it goes just let me know
