Umayr

SEEKING

Vocalist.

ABOUT

Hi! My name is Umayr and I'm a musician and composer currently based in Bradford. I have been playing guitar for nearly 9 years now and studied music at college and university. Currently I'm writing more material focused around using a loop pedal and drum pad. As I'm not a great singer I am looking mainly for a vocalist to write with and potentially start gigging with. The ability to play an instrument is a bonus but not necessary. Ideally looking for a female vocalist as I feel it might suit the sound better but if any vocalist is interested that's fine too. The closest I can describe the type of music I do with loop stuff could be alternative, rock/post-rock, slightly ambient type stuff but it is quite difficult to explain. I also have my own car so travelling to any surrounding cities would be easy for me if you are based outside of Bradford.
