Seeking percussionist (I am thinking hand drum or congas; electric oud, lute, mandola, or mandolin, etc. you catch my drift); dulcimer/santour; harpsichord/spinet

Samples here: http://www.myspace.com/Aqualyra and here: http://www.reverbnation.com/Aqualyra

Shooting for somewhere between gypsy torch folk of doom and gothic tango.

Mix of early music, baroque, doom metal/modal melodies, and 60's latin-stained torch song.

I am also rusty as hell on: viola, steeldrum, French horn!
