I'm interested in joining up with some like-minded musicians looking to have some fun, either just jamming once a while in the basement or even gigging regularly. My main focus is on enjoying the music and social aspect.
I'm also up for trying something new, with two different ideas in mind:
Starting up or joining a 60's-style pop-rock band. Grew up listening to the oldies stations, even when it wasn't cool. Love the happy, up-tempo music and often lush, soaring harmonies! Decided it's time to seek out others who share that love and start bringing that type of music back to life. Not just the old music though...would be happy to play new tunes with that old pop-rock style, harmonies and enthusiasm!
Also interested in starting up a celtic-style band. Looking for others who share a love for singing and playing tunes by the likes of Great Big Sea, Irish Rovers, Dubliners, Pogues and other upbeat traditional and contemporary Irish music.
If you're interested in chatting about possibilities, just send me an email here or at: celticthom at rogers dot com.
