I am currently studying at College on a Thursday (which clashes with my Studio sessions, with the Arlingtones). 8 of our Band members have left the group and I want to join another Band, that compliment my creative musical preferences and favourite musical Genres.
? I bought my first Acoustic guitar at age 15, then started Songwriting and Busking around various London venues for 5 years, before collaborating with other Singers and Songwriters. London City is blessed with many talented and gifted individuals. I'm looking for a cool Band that loves the type of exciting Music and Iconic artists, I grew up listening to ...??
