Chicago: Singer/bassist Seeks Guitarist

I'm a professional singer who has been performing originals at cafes. I sing and play electric bass and am looking for a guitarist experienced and flexible enough to play songs that sometimes sound jazz-influenced, sometimes classically-influenced, sometimes Latin-influenced, sometimes pop-influenced, sometimes country-influenced, sometimes Afro-pop influenced, sometimes more like ballads, sometimes more like world beat dance, sometimes more like children's music, etc.

I'm working hard on getting to the gigs that pay, but for now I'm just playing for tips. Any guitarists out there who just want to play interesting music and know that the money will have to come later?

You can see/hear me at www.reginarodriguez.com and respond by emailing me at info@reginarodriguez.com. Thanks.

It is a well paying performance, from 9:30pm-1:30pm. You would be performing along side a sultry female vocalist and backed by a Swing orchestra.
