I've been a bedroom musician long enough, i want to spread my wings in an originals band! I'm a guitarist and pianist with songwriting talent, currently rededicating myself to theory, practice and "getting serious". Experimenting with a banjo-like "sawmill" tuning for guitar. May adopt this permanently...
