SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard.ABOUT
I am a competent guitarist and sound engineer looking for jam sessions for fun, a band or for the formation of a band. I am also interested in recording other musicians and bands, either live or in the practice room.
I love playing, writing, recording and producing music of my own and would love to find other musicians to write and record with, in addition to performing live.
I have experience as a sound engineer at Plymouth Pavilions and have played guitars for practically my whole life and electric guitars for over thirty years.
Artists I have worked with as a live mixing engineer include:
Steve Harley (and Cockney Rebel)
Mad Dog Mcrea
Vince Lee Big Combo
