greetings from vermont-just discovered this site,trying to ease back into playing out more-primarily an acoustic -electric violin player,have done a big mix of styles from celtic to folk rock,alternative rock.The local music scene is coming back some 'round here,but its still kinda limited due to the number of venues.Will probably settle at some point with getting together to play for fun with options!

Welcome to the forum.

Put up some recordings so we can get all critical with ya, or at least so we can hear your chops.

I'm geographically challenged. How close are you to Madison, Connecticut? If you're close, you might wanna look up http://bandmix.com/rhythmman_bluesrockfolk/

This guy's in Maine - http://bandmix.com/celticpiping/

I glanced at Vermont & there's PAGES of ppl in here! You should have it easy finding what you need, except maybe for the bagpipes, unless you go with the guy in Maine.

Good luck in your searches for musicians.
