Bass Guitar.

ABOUT

We're currently looking for a bass player to join our Iron Maiden tribute band, based in the London area. The band is made up of very experienced and solid musicians, and we're aiming to sound as close to the real thing as possible, full classic setlist, tight live sound, proper energy on stage.

Ideally we're after someone who's a fan of Maiden and is already familiar with Steve Harris’s playing, the tone, the gallops, and the specific lines. You don’t have to be a clone, but you should be able to capture the spirit and play the parts well and as close to the originals as possible.

We usually rehearse on weekends (some flexibility),roughly 1–2 times a month. Everything’s already up and running; full set ready and upcoming gigs. Just need the right bassist to slot in and keep things moving forward.

I've added a couple of vids to my profile for reference.

Drop me a message here or get in touch on 07990 500654 (Call or WhatsApp).
