SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Violin, Other, Mandolin, Fiddle.ABOUT
Mainly a bassist and acoustic player looking to find a/some collaborator(s) passionate about writing inventive but accessible music for the joy of writing, playing live, and recording. (I also play hammered dulcimer, mandolin, octave mandolin, bodhran, cajon, tinwhistles.) I'm too old to try to "make it" or practice five nights a week, alas, but definitely open to a band or duo/trio situation, and busking definitely isn't out of the question.
No particular genre, other than rock, very broadly, and some fascination with a couple artists in other genres. I do love writing (Christian) worship music, though so much of it for the last decade or so has been breathtakingly boring (to be generous), so that would really have to be unique.
