SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Hey everybody, nice to meet ya. I'm Randy, from the Minto area and I'm looking to finally after 12 years of playing join a band. I've never really had anyone to play with so it's been mostly solo playing. Over the years I've studied bands, touring life, all of it and it's always been the number 1 thing in my life that I want to go after.
Not trying to bore you with a long story but I've struggled with mental health stuff the last few years and it's held me back a bit from going out / meeting like-minded musician friends, until now.
I don't have the greatest gigging set up at all, it's only a practice amp with the couple pedals I use BUT I do plan on upgrading the setup over the winter!
I'm more of a rhythm player, I can play fast, aggressive, not a show off. I can do lead stuff if we sit and figure it all out since I'm just nowadays trying to figure out my way around it (lead was never a focus). I'm always wanting to learn new things and am a fast learner.
All I all, I have fun with how I play and looking for people who do the same! I'm looking for a punk/rock'n'roll style band who's looking for a guitar player! If I'm rhythm, that's perfect. If we're a 3 piece and I'm both lead/rhythm, that's cool too! I'm down to practice every weekend or more if you want to. Original songs together, play shows, eventually tour. Doing it all for our musical heroes and passion for music.
Message me anytime, I should be around!
(Guitar happens to be my main instrument. But I can also play drums, bass, and sing if needed)
