SEEKING

Band to Join, Vocalist.

ABOUT

I play guitar, bass and piano, and I like to write music. My musical strengths are guitar (electric and acoustic), though I have recently acquired and refurbished a Rhodes electric piano which I've been playing a lot and adds a great sound to music. I'm hoping to find a vocalist who wants to collaborate on songwriting, but I'm pretty open if someone wants to get together and play! I enjoy playing live also, so gigging is important to me. As a person, I'm pretty easy-going and fairly quiet. You can contact me on IG at christianjamesward
