SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a male Country Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist in my early 50's. I write, sing and play country music. Along with some nice equipment, (Guitars, Amps, Mics, Shakers, PreSonus Studio One, H2N Recorder & Stage Props) I have space to rehearse at in Chilliwack. My goal is to entertain in our local senior retirement homes and local events with some good old fashioned down to earth Country/Folk/Classic Rock, covers and originals.

I am seeking a female back up singer to learn my songs, (SEE LISTINGS BELOW). If you can play an instrument, (Accoustic/Keyboards) that would be nice. I'm free to rehearse on most Thursdays, Fridays and some Saturdays early afternoons or evenings. It would be nice to commit to at least 2.5 hours of rehearsing on two of those days or 3-4 hours on one of those days.

I am a N/D, N/S, drug free and hope you're the same. Should this interest you, drop me a hello stating your experience, contact info and availability. Please live in or near Chilliwack as commuting won't work.

SERIOUS ENQUIRIES ONLY PLEASE!

Some older country/folk songs I play are:

I'm So Lonesome I could Cry, Red River Valley, Green Green Grass of Home, Good Hearted Woman, Take Me Home Country Roads, Tennessee Waltz, Storms Never Last, I walk The Line, Kiss An Angel Good Morning, Amazing Grace, One Day At A Time, Battle Of New Orleans, Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Hey Good Lookin', This Little Light of Mine, Cotton Fields, Jambalaya, Good Luck Charm, You Are My Sunshine, Can't Help Falling In Love, Sundown, Lodi, House Of The Rising Sun, Mama's Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboy's, Hello Mary Lou, Ring Of Fire, Bad Moon Rising, Don't Be Cruel, Me & Bobby McGee, Okie From Muskogee, Help Me Make It Through The Night, Folsom Prison Blues, Help Me, Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain, For Loving Me, It's All Going To Pot by Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard, Johnny B.
