Drummer looking for Rock/Americana gig

Cary NC

Description

Drummer looking to either start or join a Rock or Americana band. I have several years experience playing and recording in the Raleigh area music scene with various bands ranging from indie/singer-songwriter acoustic to loud alt rock to pop. While these have all been great, I've always wanted to play in an Rock-ish / Americana band. Think Steve Earl meets Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers meets Cheap Trick meets Jason Isbell and 400 Unit. Loud guitars, a little twang maybe but not full on country twang, organ/keyboards if possible. I'm not a flashy "look at me" drummer but can definitely hold my own. I much prefer to hold things down and play to the song. Not in it for the money or to tour the world - just want to hang out with like-minded musicians and play whenever possible locally and regionally. I am 43, career and family, but have always played in bands. I'm super laid back, no drugs, but do enjoy a few drinks during practice and after shows. Please no substance issues, conspiracy theories, or overall negativity. Bands have always taken up the bulk of my spare time and I prefer to be around people that are positive, funny, and upbeat.
