Draks Drum + Band in Lancashire, EN

SEEKING

ABOUT

We're a five piece original folk-rock band based in Colne, Lancs, looking for an experienced drummer to complete the line up which is: acoustic/vox, accordion, percussion/harmonica, bass, lead guitar. Our stuff has punk and prog influences as well, so it's quite varied in style with some interesting time signatures here and there. We've got an album out (on iTunes, Spotify etc) and we've been on BBC Radio Lancashire. We want to do more gigs and recordings. Our current drummer left because of work commitments. Check out links below and see what you think. If interested please send links to your video or music so we can see/hear what you're about. Thanks, Jon

(PS: Even though some of our tunes are folky and low key we're focusing more on the rockier/punkier stuff when we play live as it seems to go down better with audiences who don't know who we are.)
