SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
Im 21 years old, from Belfast, and absolutely love music. Been playing drums for over 11 years now, with at least 7 years of gigin' experience. Been out touring the country the minute i finished school at the age of 16. Never really focused in school cause i was playing and gigin' with few original bands and i knew that i wanted to be a professional musician. I am looking for a group of musicians to form a cover showband, you must be committed, loyal, travel, have passion and be driven by success and wanting to earn some good money. I run a very tight shift, in the band there would be a no alcohol policy (unless its a small event for fun) we will wear shirts and ties, suits and boots, looking sharp and professional. If you think you have what it takes to be in a great band, be successful and want to earn some good money then please do not hesitate to contact me. funkinfreshpromos@ g mail Thanks, Marty :)
