I just love music, especially jamming with others and bouncing creative ideas off each other.
I'd really like to find a group to do some live performances with but this isn't essential, I'd just be happy to meet some like minded music people
I'm not bothered about anybody's background, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, politics or anything like that so long as we can all show eachother the baseline respect that everyone deserves.
I'm getting into songwriting, recording and music production, this is something I don't have a huge amount of experience in but I'm enjoying it a lot so far
I don't have a big ego, drama free, I'm not the most amazing musician (not yet anyway, always improving) and I'm not in it for fame or fortune, I just want to have fun and make some cool music and cool friends, and I'm willing to commit a lot of time and energy in pursuit of this

Influences
I like a lot of varied stuff.
I'm into rock, punk, folk, indie and most combinations of those genres, but there isn't much music that I dislike.
At the time of writing I'm listening to lots of Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, Green Day, Rage against the Machine, The Beatles, Bob Marley, and loads of Scottish and Irish folk music

EQUIPMENT
Gotta catch em all. To the dismay of my wife and our flatmate, I've got myself too many electric guitars, a couple of acoustic guitars, a bass guitar, an amplifier, a banjo, a mandolin, couple of ukuleles, a keyboard, various percussion instruments, some penny whistles and a harmonica. I'd love a drum kit next, but I'm running out of space.
