Hey there! I'm a no-nonsense, bare bones rhythm guitar player who can bash out some basic bass lines, and who happens to be a retired concert band drummer.
I'm a 37 year old mechanic with a wife, a son, dogs, and a truck project, so I'm not looking to make a career of this. I'm just looking for some like minded (within reason) people to hang out and jam with from time to time. The occasional small gig isn't out of the question though.
Musically, my interests are modern & vintage Rockabilly, Punk Rock (with the emphasis on Rock,) Celtic Punk, Blues, and Straight up 4/4 time Rock.
I generally like to bash around the rhytm chords, but I'm also capable of busting out some bluesy leads from time to time as well. No vocals though, my singing voice is terrible.
