SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

Happy to play almost any genre of cover or original music except metal or thrash. But I particularly have a soft spot for the blues/country/rock meets surf rock style in the vein of Aussie band The Cruel Sea.

I live on the northern beaches of Sydney, but am happy to travel to the upper north shore, city or inner western suburbs for rehearsals. I am a dedicated band member, have good equipment and transport.

I am reliable, have a professional attitude and no real restrictions on time. I have retired from my day job and am free to rehearse and gig day or night.

Although money is not the prime motivator, I consider being paid for a gig is still highly desirable. More important to me is the ability to create high quality music with others, perform to an audience and have fun doing it.
