ABOUT

I'm interested in forming a group to do bluegrass and arrangements of songs in bluegrass style. I play banjo, guitar and a little bit of mandolin. I have experience arranging banjo for pop and folk songs that may not traditionally have banjo. I can hold a tune and happy to do anything really from percussion to keys if it fits the groove.
