Hi there,
I am a singer looking to work with other bands.
I also lead a roots music band based in Cambridgeshire, and perform the function of singer and principal songwriter.
I live on a large farm so can provide plenty of cool spaces to practice and not worry about annoying the neighbours, if we rock out!
For my own band I/we have a great and tight and very musical core team of me on vocals and keys, and a hot rhythm section of bass and drums.
We are looking for a fine all-round guitarist who can play lead, rhythm and acoustic guitar and is into great roots music that references classic rock, soul, country, quality pop, southern rock and blues/jazz (and even some reggae and old style funky flavours). As well as some of the most tuneful (and happier or more uplifting, positive) Indie bands.
We already have a fine set of really hooky, quality songs ready to perform, and we will soon start gigging in this part of East England, and have plans to perform in the capital as well as cool regional cities like Cambridge and Norwich.
Our drummer is the M.D. of a big and successful Party and events company, so he should be feeding/handing us lots of lucrative work.
