Hi all,
I've recently moved to Worcester, and am very keen to meet fellow musicians and jam, write music, gig, record, and all that good stuff.
I've been playing guitar for over 15 years now (I'm 26, if that matters), gigging professionally for around half that, across a multitude of styles. I've done some session work for a few different artists and bands, with my most recent band, Les Pantalons, being the latest recorded material I've done. They are a bizarre mix of Russian Folk, Gypsy Jazz, Grunge, and nods to Dylan-esque, poetic Folk.
Style wise, I am happy to play anything (although wouldn't be a particularly strong metal player, but can quickly learn and adapt). I just love playing guitar. I think my missus thinks I love it more than I love her. She doesn't need to know the truth...
Bands/acts I've been in/depped/sessioned for include Aztec, Defunk'd, Ferocious Lopez, The Dan Greenwood Band, Les Pantalons and more. These guys can all be found on Facebook and Soundcloud, and can send links if required.
Professional gear, professional attitude, own transport, and plenty of availability to rehearse, jam and gig.
Influences and favourite players included, but certainly not limited to; Hendrix, Clapton, Jeff Beck, Doyle Brahmall II, Derek Trucks, John Mayer, Eric Gales, Scott Sharrard, Angus Young, David Gilmour, Mark Lettieri, Snarky Puppy, and too many more to mention in a reasonably concise post.
Keen as a badger, with decent (debatable) knowledge of music theory.
All the best,
Zack
