SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I'm hoping to join an established band looking for an experienced guitarist with decent gear and a professional attitude towards learning material properly. My last band was a victim of Lockdown shenanigans and I'm now ready to get back in the swing of things. I'm based in Worthing but willing to travel for rehearsals and gigs in the right circumstances. I'm in it more for fun than cash but it would be great to at least cover costs.
I have an alarm clock and a tuner, so expect me to turn up on time and be in tune!
Happy to fit in with a brass section backing a vocalist or to be in a smaller group sharing rhythm and lead duties.
Can manage some Keef/Stones open G tunings if necessary.
I was a trumpeter in my teens and early 20s and played in various bands and orchestras - I can read music!!
