Description

Hey Sonoma County, Santa Rosa…. Looking to start up or join an irreverent fun acoustic group. Could start out as a jam session and see where that goes. My goal would be to get together weekly, and be able to start off by busking and gig at local taverns and coffee shops. Folk, old-time, Celtic, eastern euro, I’m thinking along these lines: Devil Makes 3, Gogol Bordello, Pogues, Bridge City Sinners, Goddam Gallows, Beso Negro, Dgiin….? Looking for upright bass, guitar, lead singer, maybe clarinet? Cello? Some kind of percussion would be good too, small kit maybe? I play mandolin mostly, plus some tenor banjo, and guitar; and can sing a bit. I’ve been in a few local bands, I have my equipment, and a place to jam. I’m currently playing in a band, a louder version of this, but I’m looking to get an acoustic thing going here. Here’s a link to my loud band, you can find me, I’m the mando – banjo player.- https://luckyolbon.es/ I’ve got cheat-sheets for a bunch of covers, and a few originals sketched out as well. Please have your own instrument & equipment. Will need amplification for gigs. Any age welcome - I’m in my 50s. I’m clean and sober. You don’t need to be sober, but please don’t show up wasted to practice or gigs. OK? let's do this.
