SEEKING
Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Fiddle.ABOUT
Writing angry, folk influenced rock/punk, would love to get a band together to play some of it post-pandemic.
I would also be interested in joining an existing band or collaborating with your project on guitar or bass, open to most things on the rock/folk/punk/indie spectrum, keen to play in a band again.
Can drum a bit, but nothing too complex.
