ive got a decent recording setup here and a bit of extra gear like keys etc.

i want to record and jam for fun or gig.

Influences:

mostly 60s and 70s styles.

im one of those people who really does "like everything" except a lot of new music that makes its way to the public eye is terrible so i usually avoid it and stick with the classics.
