ABOUT

Looking for like-minded musicians, which ive had difficulty finding organically. I'm open to playing lots of genres, I just want to play! But I do get bored if it's just 4 major chords.

I have lots of musical ideas and can improvise over anything, but I'm not a strong songwriter on my own. I think I could sit in with any band and contribute something, and can pick up most songs by ear on the spot. I haven't found a song I couldn't learn with enough time.
I can play guitar with a pick, fingerstyle, open tunings and with a slide. Working on my singing, would love to practice some harmonies.
I've been in classic rock cover bands, a phish cover band, a rock band, jammed with jazz bands, and played as an acoustic duo.
