Retired guy been playing at Open Mic

48th Street near Chandler Blvd, Phoenix AZ

Description

Hi my name is Ralph Freeman and I live in the Ahwatukee/Chandler area. I recently retired from work and have taken up playing lately at Open Mic at the Sozo Coffee House at Warner Road and Alma School. I think it would fun to expand and collaborate with other like-minded musicians to add more instruments and harmony. I play a lot of older Folk, Rock, and Country music and a little Blues and Bluegrass.. but very open to any and all music. Musicians I listen to and try to emulate: Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Eagles, John Prine, Steve Earl, Randy Rogers, Wade Bowen, Allison Krauss, James Taylor, Shenandoah, Morgan Wallen, Lyle Lovett, Vern Gosdin, Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) Towns Van Zante, Van Morrison, Simon & Garfunkel, Charlie Robison, Joh Pardi, JJ Cale, Vince Gill, Tracy Chapman, etc. I'd like to get together with other musicians to try and work up some songs together. If you play Guitar or Fiddle or Piano or Mandolin or Steel Guitar or Harmonica or Bass that would be awesome. I've only been playing my guitar at Open Mic, but I also know a few piano tunes that I play and sing as well. If your interested please email me back or text me. Thanks
