SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a pedal steel guitar player looking for an established band who are here simply because they love to play. Country music is where my passion is, but as long as it has soul i’ll try anything at least once. I’m new to the scene but have done some gigs and want to keep it rolling. I’m a no BS guy, and will produce so long as I am with a group of people who prioritize putting out a quality sound.
