Band to Join, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Piano, Background Singer, Upright bass, Harp.ABOUT
I have played in five piece light rock and country dance bands since 1968. I sang lead, have excellent ear for harmonies and played mostly rhythm guitar with some free form blues licks. I am now a mellowed 77 yr old senior player with time on my hands. Love the old '50's & '60's rock 'n roll. Will commit to practice/jam 1-2 times/week for fun or gigs in and around the Georgian Triangle - festivals, banquets, parties, not interested in the bar scene. I am partial to the blues, country & folk. Like harp, upright or electric bass, lead guitar, rhythm guitar & piano/organ/electronic keyboard in the group.
