Hi
My name is Rob. I'm looking to form a duo with an acoustic guitarist or bassist (or even a trio with a percussionist or keys player, however those are luxuries in JMB!).
I would be looking to play covers and write music of our own. I don't mind what the balance is with regards to covers and originals, even if it's 100% one way or the other. I'm just missing playing music with other people.
I have acoustic and electric guitars and I'm down for playing either. I have a digital amp so creating a range of tones to lead playing and/or support acoustic playing can be achieved, depending on song requirements.
If you're interested in forming a duo like this, please get in touch. I'm near Heanor.
MY BACKGROUND:
I'm 30 and I have played guitar since I was 13. I've been in bands since I was 14 but haven't been in one since I was about 27. I've been the lead guitarist in several bands, rhythm guitarist in others, had varying guitaring roles in a well-known tribute band and I've also been the vocalist in most bands I've been in.
I like music with good melodies and hooks, as well as catchy vocals. For this reason I am drawn to most tryps of music. I am particularly fond of Brian Fallon and Donovan Woods right now, but I listen to everything going. I grew up learning guitar to pop-punk, so their harmonies are somewhat ingrained into my style.
I make music for fun at the moment. If you search for 'The Snippets' in Bandcamp, you'll find that project.
