SEEKING

ABOUT

I can play many genres, but am currently searching for a Guitarist/Singer to complete the lineup in my current acoustic project HomeGrown Sounds. There is myself a guitarist/Mando/Steele Slide, Vocals will be shared. We play Folk Rock, Americana, Jam Band and Classic Rock.

My current Electric Band Is Looking For A Lead Singer that is willing to do backups as well. We are playing a variety of songs for the dance crowd. Here are a few to mull over: Vehicle - Ides Of March, Rikki Don't Lose That Number, Brandy - Looking Glass, Just The Two Of Us - Bill Withers, Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel, Takin It To The Streets n- Doobies, What You See Is What You Get - The Dramatics, Who Can It Be Now - Men At Work, It Ain't Over Till It's Over - Lenny Kravitz, Hey Pocky Way - The Meters and many more to choose from.

I would also be very interested to fill in for an Established Classic Rock or Country band. I can play hundreds of songs and I am a quick learner. Contact me for my list of songs that I can play. I am easy going and get along well with others. I was in a Classic Rock band "Lightning Hand" for over 10 years and Homegrown Sounds an acoustic band for 12 years. We played many clubs and Festivals 100+.
I want to make music, have some fun and make some money... most of which I use to get new equipment.
