Band to Join.ABOUT
Moved to the UK from the USA in late 2025. Played bass in a surf rock and outlaw country band called The Dive Bombs for nearly ten years. Played originals and some covers. We played shows, festivals and bars often in the Baltimore and Washington DC area. I have good equipment and am looking to join a band that plays together often around Oxford. “Wears sunglasses convincingly.”
