"Beginner" guitarist seeking people to jam with

Greer SC

Description

I'm 52 and just started learning guitar a year ago. I feel like I'm in a good place but I know I need to start finding other people to play with instead of just playing to backing tracks all the time. The thing is, my approach has been a little different. I have really not even learned a whole song. All I have been doing is playing along to backing tracks of various keys and genres. I spent 1-2 hours a day, at least, just improvising and exploring the fretboard and trying to train my ear. I want to jam but I'm not 100% interested in doing cover songs. I want to create our own stuff. Mess around. Have fun. Yeah, maybe learn some actual other songs but I'd rather create original stuff. I'm very influenced by classic rock and 80-90's alternative rock, although I have been playing mostly blues, funk, neo-soul type stuff the last year but I'm open to alot other than country. I'd love to find some people local and someone with a place to jam. I can't host unfortunately and I also can't travel too far so Greenville/Greer area is best. I don't drink but am 420 friendly. Will someone help me take that next step in my guitar journey?
