I'm a 67 years young singer/guitarist and was recently in a local band called The CuCoombas in Coomba Bay, NSW, but sadly, the other members of the band moved out of the area and the band broke up. We started the band about 8 years ago and were doing local gigs, mainly catering for audiences in their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s. I'm looking to get together with other guitarists, singers, a base guitarist, keyboard player, drummer, and any other musicians who like all types of rock, jazz & pop from the 60s, 70s, 80s, & 90s but are interested in doing local gigs. Currently I practice almost every day & am ready to join a band or backup singers as a session guitarist. Having said all of the above, I am not an expert guitarist, but think of myself as someone at an intermediate level. I
also lead/call Bush dances.

Influences
On and off, over the last 50 years, Craig has sung & played trumpet, keyboards, & guitar, & believes that the mark of the best songs is that you can strip away all the accompaniment & they still sound great. Most of these types of songs were composed in the second half of last century.
Here's my current but expanding song list:
