SEEKING
Vocalist.ABOUT
TL;DR - I've gigged a lot in bands that no longer exist and as a session musician for solo artists and small bands. I have taught stage musician practices in the US. I am a filmmaker and music marketer with knowledge to make a band succeed.
Guitarist based in London. In my time as a musician, I have played gigs all over the country from as far south as Brighton all the way up to Newcastle and many cities in between.
The primary band I have played in is a small London based pop-punk/alternative band called "New, Again" in which I was the bassist and backing vocalist for the first couple years and then the rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist in our last leg of gigs.
"New, Again" has since dissolved with our final gig being in August 2019. We are all still very close friends however, our musical interests have changed since our inception in 2016.
Therefore, I am looking to start a band.
I have extensive experience playing live shows having performed in bands as a mainstay member and as a session musician for bands like "Sycamore" and “Debris Dance”, and solo artists such as "Cathy Nguyen".
On top of that, I have also taught live band and stage musician classes at Appel Farm Arts Camp in New Jersey, US which had me prepare students in the art of stage performance.
I am also a freelance filmmaker with a speciality in music marketing.
My goal on Bandmix is to find a band and, through my knowledge and education in music industry practices, become a professional musician. I believe with the right chemistry, it is extremely attainable.
Thanks for reading.
