Lead guitarist and drummer are looking for a bassist to jam with.

For the last few months, we’ve been jamming on a weekly basis for a few hours, working on covers and originals. Neither of us are pros, but both have solid chops and previous experience. Both of us have serious jobs, and have no intention of becoming professional musicians, however we’re interested in some serious musical exploration, song writing, local gigging, and eventually some recording if things go smoothly. After we find a bassist we like, will get another guitar or keyboards in there. 420 friendly for sure, but no straight up drug addicts.

Here’s a little more about each of us…

Peter, Guitarist: 26 years old, starting graduate school in the city in the fall, influenced heavily by Phish, Dead, Allman Bros., moe., Neil Young, Pink Floyd, Bert Jansch, Nick Drake, Leo Kottke, among others. Basically classic and jam rock, with some folk and bluegrass on the side. Written a dozen or so originals we’ve been practicing, and a large repertoire of covers. Likes to segue from one song to the next...

Marcos, Drummer: 28 years old, has performed and recorded with rock and punk bands. Becoming increasingly interested in improvisational and jam oriented music.

You?, Bassist: Can lay down the root as well as noodle on up the fret board, likes to have musical conversations with other people, is influenced by some of the same musicians. Has a job but likes to use free time to jam and hang out.

Hit us up and let’s play! You know who you are…
