Marcus A + Musician in Manly, NSW

SEEKING

ABOUT

Hello there! I'm a 19 year old songwriter who is looking for some like-minded creative forces to be reckoned with. My dream is to start a musical career with a band that can work on some mega ambitious projects, like tours, albums, a cult internet following, etc. The ideal person I'd like to meet here is a skilled lead guitarist and/or a powerful frontwoman around my age with big ideas, a sense of humour, songwriting experience and eagerness to make a difference to the world. But if you just want to chat or work on something music related feel free to hit me up.
I specialise in bass guitar and piano with a good knowledge of music theory, but my main thing is songwriting. I've got lots of songs up my sleeve that I seriously can't wait to perform some day :)

This platform is awful when it comes to communication, so...
