Band to Join, Vocalist, Bass Guitar.ABOUT
I have been playing acoustic guitar (primarily rhythm) for 20 years and mandolin for about 6. For about ten years I played with a rock/country/blues cover band. This group is at least temporarily on hold while we try to find a new bass player. After teaching high school for 33 years I am very comfortable on stage and a solid singer. I also play mandolin once a week with a bluegrass band and I have a female musical partner with whom I have played wineries for many years. As i am recently retired my schedule is flexible
