Yes, I'm the old guy. It happens to all of us. I've played music for decades, hundreds of live shows, recordings, TV and teaching music. I'm currently wanting to steer away from too many cover songs and more into my writing skills. I hold my own on guitar and can add harmonica and flute. I'm a front man lead singer. I'm looking for anything from one other person to a full band that wants to get together and make new music or re-write some classic hits.Please be a mature over 40 or 50 pro.

Influences
I've been influenced mostly by the great VOCALS in rock, folk, country, pop, blues and top 40.
Beatles,Eagles,BeeGees,Pink Floyd,SRV,Hendrix,Allman/Doobie Bros.,Elvis,Petty,Dylan,and hundreds of one hit wonder bands.
Let's not forget all the great folk and pop singers from coffee house to Woodstock. Nothing propels a band or even two singers more than great harmonies. .
There's just way too many bands and solo artist that I like. If the vocals are great and the guitar work carries a melodic dynamic to the song, I'm in. (keys, horns and a great rhythm section are what drives me)
