ABOUT

Hi.. I am interested in testing the water with existing bands or forming a new one.
I have been playing, and in bands since I was 16, and I am 74 now but don't let that scare ya :-), cause I love to rock..
Before the pandemic I was playing music with my brother, re uniting after 40 years. We have both moved to different locations so here I am.
Right now I've developed a big sound on stage using backing tracks that I have recorded in my little studio. I play everything on those tracks except drums which I program, and sing all the harmonies. On stage I play guitar and sing the lead vocal.
I am a rhythm guitarist primarily, not proficient at lead work but can do some. If you would like a set list of the songs with backing tracks, just let me know.
If I keep the same scenario, I would love to find a female rock vocalist, lead guitarist, bass guitar, keyboards, and drums, replacing the tracks accordingly
I also write and record my own songs and am a pretty good producer.
I am NOT looking to sit in anywhere, or have sit ins with me, but serious, fun loving people who can rock out on stage
If you are interested lets talk!
