SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Electronic Music.ABOUT
Seeking Collaborators! Looking for like minded souls to join with or for me to join. Ideally Guitar/vox & Drums. Would really like to try putting something good together. I have played in a number of original bands and a couple of cover bands over the last 25+ years - although i'm not currently playing in a band as such, I occasionally get together with the guys from a band we formed in the 90's to jam.
I would say my style is individual and a little idiosyncratic. Never been a wallflower or one of those guys standing at the back hitting route notes all night. Having said that I am quite versatile and can play straight when required. I'm not sure I play like any one particular person to be honest... Bob Weston perhaps. Kira Roessler or maybe Mike Dirnt.
