Jazz/fusion guitarist looking for other humans

Jacksonville FL

Description

Hey, folks. I'm Ty. I'm a guitarist looking for other people to make music with. I'm 28 and I've been playing for like 6 years. I'd describe my style as fusion/funk/jazz. I cut my teeth on improvising over floyd-style progressions based around minor pentatonic stuff (which I'm sure is fairly typical). I've spent a lot of time focused on metal/rock style stuff, although that changed in the last couple of years. I've got a decent base in theory, and I'm currently trying to learn a few standards (chitlins con carne, a night in tunisia). I'm really just looking for people who care about music the way that I do. The language of music itself. Friends to talk about music with, musicians to play/jam with or even form an actual band, and mentors to learn from. I'd love to find an angry old jazz cat who yells at me for not knowing my drop 2 voicings or something. Overall I really just want to make music with other humans. I don't care what style it is. I'll comp for your latin band, I'll play lead for a fusion trio, rhythm for your prog group, I'll even play bass. I'm actually a pretty stand out bassist so don't discount that entirely. I have decent gear and resources to acquire more appropriate things for specific scenarios. I'm also not super interested in doing typical cover music, as I lean really heavily towards improvisation. What I'm not looking for: closemindedness, drama, chaos, hatefulness, substance abuse. I'm no prude, I'll drink some beers with you after a gig. But I don't have space in my life for bullshit.
