Band to Join, Harmonica, Drums, Bass Guitar, Background Singer, Acoustic Guitar, Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Vocalist.ABOUT
I play classic rock, some modern rock, and blues, I play mainly blues oriented music, but am up for playing anything pretty much. I also have been getting into some slide guitar lately. I have been looking to start a band or join one for some time now... And I've just recently been involved in learning some Jazz music, although I've been highly interested in freeform for a while now. Honestly, I'm so desperate to start a band or at least start jamming and let people hear what I want to do. I am really into experimenting and finding a new style or new sounds.
I've been playing for about 6 years, and anxious to get going with what I've learnt so far!
I've been wanting to join a band or start one where all of the members have a similar interest in types of music, classic rock mainly. Doing covers or creating new music with a groove is what I'm looking for. I have always loved vocal harmonies(multiple people singing at different pitches or however I should explain it) which is almost a standard for jam bands, and I have always wanted to do instrumental harmonies too, like playing octaves and stuff on the guitar with a partner. I'm available to practise a few times a week or more, and looking to start off small with maybe a gig a week or a month, just wanting to get somewhere. I am wanting to get as serious as you can get about music, I am only in college, but I've got big dreams for the future in the music industry. If this sounds good, give me a shout.
