SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a rhythm and lead guitarist. I've been playing for 35 years and love to write and play original music. I'm looking for a drummer who's interested in playing instrumental music with myself and a bassist.

I've been writing instrumental songs to jam with for the past 15 years: mostly rock, but also blues, jazz, reggae, Latin, progressive, hybrids (whatever feels inspiring at the time). I share rhythm guitar tracks and chord notation before we play, so we can spend more time playing when we get together, and play more progressive tunes that are hard to sort out on the spot. We rehearse separately, and get together every couple of months. The jam recordings below represent a typical night of music. If you're a drummer who likes playing new material in a variety of styles, contact me here or at greg4jamming@gmail.com.
