SEEKING

Drums.

ABOUT

The Ideal Band was formed in 2023 and started gigging pretty much straightaway. We're a committed bunch of seasoned musicians playing a set of covers from bands you don't hear much played in pubs and clubs but we like them. We have an established set and gigs already booked for 2026 in and around Gloucestershire. Unfortunately our first drummer has had to step away so we are looking for a replacement that fits in with what we do. We have a page with videos of our last few gigs for you to check us out - just search for TheIdealBandUK/ NOTE: VACANCY NOW FILLED - THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.

EQUIPMENT

Too many guitars and lots of amps. Too many effects pedals yet I love the pure sound of all my valve amps.
