Band to Join, Vocalist, Acoustic Guitar, Fiddle.ABOUT
A versatile and well experienced performer, I play acoustic stringed instruments and sing.
My most popular instrument is my octave mandolin, which is a double sized mandolin with a beautiful ringing sound. As well as being able to play conventionally, I have created my own unique style of playing for this instrument, using both acoustic and electric pick-ups with effects and combining several styles and stringed instrument techniques.
I am looking for an experienced singing acoustic guitar player to play covers and traditional music for paid gigs.
