SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Upright bass.ABOUT
While I'm currently fronting Rugby hard rock covers band Leap of Faith (www./leapsters) I'm looking for extra work as a sideman or co-conspirator for smaller gigging projects: duo, singer songwriter, Jaco or Larry to your Joni...?
I have over 40 years in music with 30 semi-pro, covering the whole gamut from jazz to metal via country, blues, rock and roots. I play guitar and bass, write, sing, arrange, and produce, I have no vices, no ego (yeah, right!), pro gear and transport. I like to eat bad food and sometimes I think I'm a bit cool. But that's it. Really.
