Growler + Band in Oxfordshire, EN

SEEKING

ABOUT

Punk and classic rock covers band. Some songs we do as straight as we can, others we play around with a little. We try not to go the safe route, preferring to play songs we'd like to hear but few covers outfits have the balls to play, so we've a Clutch song in the set which is not only obscure, but has a 6/8 timing or something equally as odd, and more of a technical exercise, and songs by Monster Magnet and Dead Kennedys. And people still ask us back...

We have recently been approached by a booking agent offering us gigs all over the south of England. These are all pub gigs and as such don't pay that handsomely but all earnings are split equally, with a small commission going to our agent.

We're also looking to get on the Bike Rally circuit as these would be great fun and we'd get looked after well.

The problem we're faced with is that our drummer can only commit to one gig per month and we'd like to more than this so we're looking for someone who's willing to step in and play the gigs he won't do, and as we've been playing with him for so long we don't want to replace him, as we're all great friends and socailise together.

Double-kick expertise is a must.
