SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
60, have played for most of my life. I have good instincts and strong technique. I'm comfortable in most genres. My job requires me to work evenings 1 week out of 3 or 4 but am available all other evgs. I have moderate studio and performance experience.
I might be able to provide basic backing vox but am not a particularly good singer.
I'm looking for an original or cover act that plays at least 3 gigs a month.
