I'm a 21 year old student studying History and American Studies at York St John University and I am interested in starting a couple of projects. I'd love to start a folk band, and also a punk band. I am open to all styles and influences, and also don't mind doing some covers as well as original stuff. I do play piano/keyboards but would primarily like to focus on guitar.
