47 years old. Been playing guitar since I was 12. Picked up bass, banjo, ukulele, mandolin and drums along the way (definitely better at some than others). Studied music at Mohawk College. Got my Bachelor of Music from McMaster University. I’ve been a grade 6-8 music teacher for the public school board for nearly 29 years.
I haven’t played in a band in over 10 years and would like to get back into it. Nothing too serious just want to play some tunes and have some fun with easy going people.

Roots are firmly in rock. Studied classical guitar in college and university. Played banjo in a Dixieland jazz band for 10 years. I like to listen to pretty much anything and am open to playing most anything. It’s all about having an open mind.
