ABOUT

Hey, my name is Jennavive. I’m looking for a band to play with around the Phoenix area, and I’m open to most kinds of music (the only real exception being modern-style country music and lead guitar a la metal style, because I can’t play solos well enough for that). I’ve been playing music for about six years now, primarily on guitar (acoustic, electric, classical), but also bass. I’ve been working on piano/keys for about four months now, and I’ve been taking singing lessons for a year as well (soprano; but I’m learning how to add grit in a healthy way). I do work fulltime and attend school, but I am able to commit to practice time, as long as others do as well. I’ve been in a few very short-lived bands, and getting others to show up to the sessions seemed to be the hardest part.
