ABOUT

Looking for like minded musicians for original band. Have lots to share.
Play very off the cuff and tons of slide and would love a co-lead player to bounce the groove off of
Blues, roots, southern rock with a twist of Detroit Rock/Punk etc
Think MC5 and Grand Funk meets Rev Gary Davis and Doyle Bramhall II electric & Rich Robinson meets Tim Buckley acoustic...hahahaha..ISH...I love alternate tunings and whacky concepts. Folk, roots and blues
some videos of mostly original stuff, bits n bites take it for what it is..some have potential, some well..lol. would love to find a writing partner to take on the rest of the adventure.
Been fortunate enough to play gigs with 5440, Grapes of Wrath, Spirit of the West, Beverly Mahood, John Hammond Jr, ...sure im dating myself but lol. NO, not tooting a horn, just offering up some info.
Will travel for equal commitment minded folks if the fit is right.
God Bless
