I play mainly electric rhythm guitar in a funky blues style (and have been a lead vocalist in the past).
I have previously written, recorded and performed my own material. For the last few years work commitments have taken me away from writing and playing and I have really missed it.
Now I would like to meet up with some other musicians (who can also sing a bit for harmonising), the aim being to put together a set list of our own versions of great rhythm & blues numbers plus a few originals in a similar style.
I like the idea of mainly more than one voice leading to provide harmonic richness to any of the songs we perform.
These we would showcase on the London pub/club/music venue circuit.
See the 'some of my influences list' to get an idea of what I'm thinking of...
