SEEKING
Keyboard, Vocalist - General.ABOUT
I play bass, drums, keys and vocals - tenor; primarily bass, 5 string, pick and finger style. 5 years experience. Drums - rock and reggae.
Currently in a band with 3 friends, one drummer, and 2 guitars, rhythm and lead. We're currently doing mostly rock/punk covers, like R.E.M, Foo Fighters, The Killers, The Cranberries; I myself have only performed in about 5 gigs or so in another band, but I have plenty of play time :-) - the other lads have done more.
Our intent is to diversify over time, with a view to working on some more progressive sounds including synth and electro-pop styles or indeed punk, depending on who we can get, so, for instance like groups such as All Tvvins, Sleep Thieves, Suzanne Sundfor, Extra Fox, Cranberries or even Bjork/P.J. Harvey/FATM. So that would be the vision.
So we really need a female vocalist who would be into that kind of stuff!!
If you like those artists listed above and would be interested in becoming part of the crew - just pop us a message - we'd be delighted to hear from you and we could organise a session (and have a beer) ha!
Also, we're looking for a synth player as well - because although I can play keys I can't exactly play them at the same time as the bass now.. so again, if you're interested, give us a bell!!
Cheeers,
Steve
