Fully vaccinated mandolin player seeing a few good folks to play with

Papke Ct near S Street, Eureka CA

Description

My name is Gina, and I'm an intermediate bluegrass mandolin player who moved to Eureka from Sonoma Co. a couple of months ago. I'm in my mid-60s, fully vaccinated against COVID-19 now, and I'm getting tired of practicing and playing all alone. It looks like it may be some time yet before public jams or festivals start up again in the area, so I'm wondering if there might be any guitar, fiddle, banjo or acoustic bass players in the same situation. I'm interested in more of a "slow jam" and I've only been playing about three years now. I would like to have a small (1-3 others) regular bunch of friendly musicians who'd enjoy joining me for private sessions to see what good sounds we might come up with. Once we find some common areas of interest, I'd prefer to play a fairly stable set of tunes each time so that we can actually make music and sound better over time, rather than playing any old tune the way it's usually done in public jams. I have an excellent detached music room with good reverb where we can meet to play. Just thought I'd toss this out there and see who might be like-minded!
