SEEKING
Band to Join, Drums, Bass Guitar, Vocalist, Keyboard.ABOUT
I am a guitarist/vocalist looking for band (existing or musicians to start up) for 2 to 6 paying gigs per month. No offense, but I am only interested in working with musicians who have substantial gigging experience. I am available for weekly rehearsals to work into a band or start one up.
PLEASE NOTE: I do not have a "PREMIRE" account, so I can not contact others via this web site. If you wish to contact me, please email me at: davidp158 AT DOT net or call me at 425-746-7245. I don't frequent this site on a regular basis, and bandmix message alerts are not forwarded to me.

Here's a cover of a Richard Thompson tune for ya. Richard's version has a Celtic lilt to it, but this one has a bit more of a rock groove with twangy guitar.

A swampy, funky cover of an old Chuck Berry tune. I don't cover any "new" Chuck Berry tunes because there aren't any...
