Folk Punk Band Forming, seeking creative musicians

Hello, I am the starting a new band and am looking for co-conspirators. I write songs and play guitar/ vocals, and have someone to cover bass or rhythm guitar. I've played in bands ranging from '77 style (the boys, the jam, heartbreakers, cocksparrer, dickies, ramones) to math-y hardcore to more contemporary (le shok, red dons, rvivr) and even glam influenced stuff (bowie, roxy, trex, dolls).
Interested in starting a project that is rooted in great punk songwriting but makes use of acoustic instrumentation along with electric. The idea is punk, essentially was a return to the roots of rock and roll, and rock and roll was a modernization of folk and blues, so this project would bring the whole thing full circle ideally.
When I say folk I DO NOT mean Irish style at all. Its an original concept so I can't really give a band I want to sound like, but the closest thing would be something like this Filthy Thieving Bastards track (probably a touch darker though):

here are links to some songs I wrote, though these are not indicative of what I want to do:

If interested in the concept I'm looking for:
vocals, backup or dual lead plus any applicable instument
guitar or bass (I can cover the other)
drums (full kit or a solid snare player would work too)
any of the following: mandolin, banjo, keys, violin, viola, accordian

This can work as a trio or a bigger lineup, and am into sharing vocals and songwriting with any and all. This will be alot of fun and also should be much more "marketable" and versatile as far as gigs and audiences than a typical punk rock band. I look forward to hearing from you-cheers!
