SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I’m a dad, business owner and lifelong musician. Been playing since I was 15 years old. It got serious a few times and I toured and recorded in the 90’s. I’ve done studio work and filled in on a number occasions for bands that needed a drummer in a jam. Life got busy and family and career got pushed to the forefront through the 2000’s. I’ve mostly played acoustic guitar over the past decade but in the last year or so I pick up the sticks again and have been playing more and more. I’m interested in finding a great group of musicians to build up a fun repertoire to play local festivals and gigs a few times per month.
