SEEKING A PERMANENT DRUMMER !
Are you an experienced Blues drummer based in Surrey (or South London) with a decent kit and means of transport?
Or maybe you are an experienced Jazz drummer with a special feeling and commitment to the Blues?
Do you have a mean "Shuffle" , and familiar with some of the influences named here above?
PLEASE DO GET IN TOUCH.
This band has been running for several years and plays regular pub gigs with some of the best Blues talent in London. We have been using a number of "dep" drummer friends who are always gigging so it has been difficult to move the band forward.
We only play to get paid a decent fee and do on average 2 gigs a month.
Looking for someone who would be willing to bring their solid druming skills and develop their playing within this specific style of American 50's "West Coast" Blues.
We have gigs in the diary waiting for you and can rehearse for free
(will be necessary to have a few practice sessions - within reason).
PLEASE DO GET IN TOUCH !!
