Bass Guitar.

ABOUT

Vocalist/guitarist (Iain) and drummer (me) are looking for a committed bass player to complete the line-up of our originals band.

We have a full LP’s worth of songs already devised and some initial demos recorded. Stylistically they are in the realm of alternative/post-punk (early Editors/Joy Division/Interpol etc.) but with synth elements that are played through backing tracks when we perform live. The closest reference to our sound is perhaps White Lies’ To Lose My Life album.

We’re looking for someone who can come in and make the songs even better, adding melodic bass parts that work in harmony with the drums as well as the overall sound.

There are no egos in this band - our ethos is that the songs come first and everything we play should support that. If you don’t think one of our parts is working then we want and expect you to challenge us, and in turn please be prepared for us to challenge you as well. We do take this very seriously and would need our fellow bandmate to share that same level of commitment and work ethic.

We rehearse at Arch Studios, Chiswick, over a four day period once every month (Thurs/Fri 18:00-22:00 & Sat/Sun 11:00-15:00) and in between those rehearsals we work remotely on writing, recording and sharing ideas with each other. This means that we always have plenty to work on when we get together in the rehearsal room.

Age-wise this would probably most suit someone in their 30s/40s but we’re happy to work with people outside of that range if they were the right fit for the project. It goes without saying that all genders/races/nationalities/sexualities are welcomed, and we very much encourage applications from any underrepresented groups within the industry.

If this sounds interesting then please get in touch, we’d love to share our demos and find out some more about you.
