Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Keyboard.ABOUT
Just a retired guy… time to have fun, and get reasonably good at playing music. Have played in various bands & music projects in the Okanagan. As well, over the internet using Jamkazam I play in a group with guys I’ve known for the last 20 years or so. On the coast, we did some gigs and our own recording including some original music. It’s great meeting local musicians with similar music interests to explore new ideas.
I play mainly bass guitar but I've been enjoying making up my own tunes playing guitar, keyboard, drums & various other noise makers. You can hear a selection of my tunes produced over the years here. I use the DAW Cakewalk to develop & record my stuff and have helped other local guys (L.Q.D. of West Kelowna) mix & master their tracks. Always look forward to lots of musical collaborations!
