SEEKING
Lead Guitar.ABOUT
Seeking lead guitar player (either located in Waterloo or one who doesn't mind traveling to Waterloo to practice) to help me start a rock tribute or cover band or something in-between. I play keys/synth/organ, rhythm guitar and simultaneously sing so we would just need to get a drummer and bass to complete the lineup. If there is enough creative chemistry we could solely work on originals I'm easy. I would like us to eventually play around ontario and embark on some summer holiday touring out of province.
As some background of myself, I grew up taking piano, theory and voice lessons. I then played trumpet in the high school concert bands 7-13. But arguably the most important musical endeavor was playing/singing in high school rock band and played some gigs. Around 10years ago i got heavy into vocal jazz before returning to my rocking roots ;)
I am currently preparing some audio clips for band mix curious so anyone can here me play and sing before deciding. If you instead want a demo of the real thing then just contact me and lets get together plus bring your axes sing i also would like to hear you play before deciding if it will work.
