SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I have been playing all my life, grew up trying to be Steve Vai or Joe Satriani, so I used to have a pretty fast hand. Not as fast anymore, but certainly wiser! I tend to listen to all sorts of rock, from classic 70s and 80s, to grunge/metal, to 00s pop punk.
I have played lead guitar in all sorts of bands over the years, ranging from classic rock and blues, to hard rock/metal, to pop punk, even swing/jazz in a big band at some point. I can learn solos from the originals, but I can also improvise pretty well.
What I'm looking for is a band of easy going people to do have some fun and do regular gigs around the area. I am genuinely open to any kind of rock band, please get in touch and pitch me your idea! I am also open to originals and recording sessions.
If you've made it this far, thanks for reading!
