SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Been playing and lead singing as a bass guitarist extensively for the last three years. No ego, no drama, willing to help with background vocals as well, whatever the band leaders need. In my younger days, I was a rhythm/lead guitarist, and front man but as I get older, it doesn’t really matter. I was also a percussionist in my younger days and have helped with specialty drums as well, an example is Zeppelin‘s “Whole Lotta love,” during the instrumental break, playing the conga part during the drum solo. Looking to take my talents and help a band and to be in sync with bandmates. I am 60 years old and have pretty much seen it all. Have toured, been a studio musician. Looking now to gig each month for extra cash, very simple.
