Band to Join, Vocalist, Vocalist - Tenor, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Piano, Background Singer, Other, Electronic Music.ABOUT
Experienced guitarist, songwriter, and singer moving to London early February 2023, from Vancouver, Canada via Bristol!
I'd be super keen to join an existing project, or collaboratively develop something together with a few cool people!
If I were to start something up with you and a few friends, I'd be very excited to do something that feels like either:
1) a psych/riff rock project along the lines of Wand, Fuzz, King Gizzard, maybe bringing in some other spicy sounds like King Tuff, Grey Britain era Gallows, Idles, War on Drugs
OR
2) a punky dark wave/new wave thing along the lines of cold cave, boy harsher, holograms, eagulls, hibou
If I was to hop on your existing project, I'm pretty flexible as a musician, and quite open in terms of sounds and styles. I've previously been in metal, punk, hardcore bands as lead guitarist, backing vocals and lead vocals. Over the last six years, I was lead guitarist and co-writer in a hugely dynamic band which brought garage rock, psych rock, and shoegaze elements together in a really powerful way with things like synth and dream pop, at times even a bit of country and disco. I've got two of our songs, recorded 2021, on my profile.
If you're looking for a fun creative collaborator, and somebody who knows how to play well with others (and when not to play!), I'd love to hear from you!
Message me on instagram, they want you to pay to send messages on here which just seems silly @_jjjesse
