SEEKING

ABOUT

Versatile bassist and singer with over 20 years studio and stage experience seeking PROFESSIONAL musicians to start a band with 2 basses with an accent on the rhythm section. We need a drummer, second bassist and guitarist to play funky, jazzy hard rock originals. We also welcome any horns and keyboards. Would be good if you can sing back-up. I've got loads of material and am just looking for the right people to play it with. Recently became wheelchair-bound and can only play seated currently, but still up for gigs and recording.
