SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
I am a Electric / Acoustic Guitarist: I am always looking for something or someone to inspire me. I enjoy working with musicians with original ideas across every musical genre.
At the moment FUNK seems to turn me on more than anything else.
I would love to work on a fUNK, Neo Soul or R&B album, adding my soulful licks to compliment the songwriters lyrics and music.
