SEEKING

ABOUT

Advanced Intermediate guitar player, retired and now devoting myself to learning to make music. I play electric and acoustic guitars, and sing. Got some theory down, have been taking some serious lessons, both guitar and vocals, practice several hours a day, every day.

My time is very flexible; could practice with a band 3x a week, any time of day.

Got a band going, but also open for another band to join - Rock, blues, jazzy stuff all good. Like to do some free-flowing Grateful Dead like jams. (update - now playing with two bands, so time a little limited for new things)
