SEEKING

ABOUT

Mid-40's transplant from USA. Played guitar since 1996 but no lessons, little discipline/practice regime. 'Intermediate' skill level.
Looking for people to play with, potentially to write new music with and/or gig (but at my age available time is a limiting factor!).

Dabble in many styles: metal, post-punk, industrial, new wave, alternative. Like music with an abrasive edge.

Was in an industrial/experimental duo in the late '90s/early'00s, joined gigging/recording alternative band playing original music for a year (2010). Played on and off in the between times.

I like horror movies, dinosaurs, and am pretty left-leaning and 'woke' if that's a deal-breaker.
