SEEKING
Vocalist - Bass, Bass Guitar, Drums, Trumpet, Saxophone.ABOUT
Currently I am seeking to be a lead guitarist for an active, touring band. I have several years experience playing in cover and fronting original bands as well as my own bands. I'm also looking for a Bass Player who Really loves to play BASS! Not a frustrated guitar player or a LEAD BASS PLAYER who needs a bass player to complete his Victor Wooten or Wayman Tisdale fantasy. I play an amalgamation of all kinds of music that I have heard since I was a child. Blues, Rock, New Wave, Jazz, Funk, R&B and a little bit of Country. I do have some original material that will reflect some of those influences. With that said, I need someone committed and take ownership of holding down the bottom! There will be plenty time to do "Your Thang" after the integrity of the song has been established. In other words, WE have to work before we play!!
