SEEKING
Band to Join, Bass Guitar, Vocalist, Drums.ABOUT
Hi. My name is Ben Scholte. I am a musician from Cheshire. I play Guitar, Bass and can also sing. I have played in many bands over the years and you will be able to hear some examples of the music i have written in those bands on this page. I have been playing guitar for over 12 years and i am now 21. I am currently looking for other musicians in the North West area with the intention of starting up a new project, whatever that may be... Also, as a guitarist, i am available to assist any band or artist with recording or live performences, paid or unpaid.
**WANTED**
I am an instrumental guitarist from the North West UK. I have recently been signed to Casket Music.
We will be releasing my first instrumental album in the near future. The album will be available worldwide with promotions though various mediums and there will also be a supporting tour some time during 2013.
So, I am first and foremost looking for a band! I’m not looking for sessions who want payment or anyone who thinks they are going to jump on this venture and coast a ride without putting in any hard work! This isn’t the X-Factor!
I am looking for musicians who share the same enthusiasm. I am looking for musicians who are easy going and up for a laugh just as much as they are professional. I am looking for musicians who will become good friends. That in itself is just as important as the music.
Specifically i am looking for a drummer, a bass player and a rhythm guitarist.
To give you an idea, the music fits comfortably in the market frequented by the likes of Steve Vai and Joe Satriani. So, if that’s your thing get in touch!
This is not an opportunity to be missed!
