SEEKING
Band to Join, Drums, Violin, Fiddle.ABOUT
I'm a singer songwriter, who's been writing seriously for around 15 years. The genre of music I play's probably best described as Americana, but I like to rock out within that parameter. I've been doing the occasional solo gig and busking for the last several years. I'm also currently playing guitar in a gospel band. I have a really large catalogue of original material, and I'm hoping to record some time in 2023. I'm looking to put a three piece together with myself, a violinist and a drummer. My sounds quiet low fi probably with elements of indie prog rock as well as being predominantly Americana and fairly rootsy.
