Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Steel guitar, Accordion.ABOUT
I and my wife, Pam, have just arrived in the Amarillo area from Madison, Wisconsin.
I would love to get with some fellow musicians that love to play and perform at almost any level. I have played professionally with country bands, polka bands, rock bands, jazz bands, piano trios and done solo gigs at Holiday Inns, Ramada Inns, etc. I have recorded with numerous bands and organizations, backed up tracks in studios and done fill-in and call-up concert work for groups like the Platters, John Pryne, Spiral Staircase, etc. I played bass viol with the Greeley Symphony, Denver Symphony, Symphony of S.E. Alaska and Madison Community Orchestra. I have taught both in public schools and privately. I play a range of instruments including bass guitar, bass viol, guitar, keyboards, drums, flute and recorder(s). I love to play in just about any genre and will gladly jam with anybody interested in making good music!
