Guitarist/ mandolin player - Jazz band/singer wanted

Acoustic
Classical
Folk
Jazz

I have moved back to West Yorkshire after nine years of living in the Channel Islands and High Wycombe. During that time I spent my time playing Jazz Manouche.

Previously I have played solo jazz pieces, acoustic and classical solo pieces and mandolin. I have a varied taste in music ranging from Yes, Frank Zappa to Pentangle/folk. I also enjoy a variety of jazz - mostly 30, 40 swing music as well as more 'modern' players like Wes Montgomery and Martin Taylor.

I don't sing, and if you heard me you would understand why. I am based in Heckmondwike.

I am looking to join or form a jazz band. I am interested in laying with an instrumental band or backing a lead singer. This could be in the style of Billy Holiday, Julie Londan or Amy Winehouse. Equally it could be in the style of Frank Sinatra, Nat Kingcole or Gregory Porter.

I am open to any suggestions.
