Versatile and experienced bassist, guitarist, ukulele. Aged 54.
I particularly like retro styles like rockabilly, country, 80s and classic pop and rock.
Good backing vocal and some lead vocal.
Played bass and guitar in pop/rock function bands most of my musical life, the latest being Junkshop Toys around the Surrey area, but maybe like to start something for fun.
Maybe a modern rockabilly trio or some acoustic covers and/or originals in a rock and roll / honky tonk style.
