7) Bass Player and Drummer Wanted for Singer/Songwriter

"I'm keen to begin working with a bass player and a drummer. As you know, I am an interesting and vibrant songwriter and a confident and competent gat player and performer. I am however, pretty crap at jamming and playing with other musos. This is due to being self taught and not having practised or 'learnt' to jam. I'm sick of sitting in the corner chucking my toys at other kids - I wanna learn to play with them!"

"If you can think of any musos whose style and placement would make a good compliment to each of us can you pass on my details. If they want a description of my croonings thye should visit http://www.bloodymary.net.nz/, if they want a demo I can send one."
