ABOUT
I've got various interests in terms of collaborations/forming bands...
firstly, I compose a lot of guitar music which is fairly alternative, acoustic, folky, soundscapey. & so I'd love to find a singer/lyricist or any other instrumentalists that might complement it & see where it can go.
secondly, I'd love to join or start a new band, my tastes & interests are pretty varied, so I'm very open & interested to try something new, see where it goes as long as its not too pop/mainstream or sceney (I love indie music but not indie scene music).
thirdly, I'm a pretty confident acoustic guitarist & enjoy coming up with my own versions/renditions of songs. I'd love to meet & collaborate with a female vocalist in either doing covers or coming up with guitar parts to complement their singing.
lastly, I'm a big fan of 60s, Motown & 80s music & would be very interested in joining or starting a covers band in any of these genres.
