SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Drums, Saxophone, Keyboard, Background Singer.ABOUT
I have been a professional musician in the US for 40 years in a variety of groups. Some have been all original music, but most have been cover bands. I was in my last band for 17 years playing 90-100 gigs per year. I sing lead and harmony, play bass (fretless, too), and some acoustic and electric guitar. I speak English and my French is OK but still improving. I would like to play 1 or 2 nights per week, but if the right full-time opportunity came up I would certainly consider it. I would prefer a band with good harmonies and solid players who play with enthusiasm and creativity. My Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/sandypardeebassist/?ref=aymt_homepage_panel
