SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
Hey there - I'm a versatile guitarist and bassist, pretty decent on guitar although not A*, good on bass, with plenty of experience - played and toured with two moderately successful bands, one indie which had top 40 single, one heavy 'skate' rock band signed to Columbia with a Top 10 hit in Japan in the 00s. Played well over 500-odd gigs all over the UK from Southend to Glasgow, and Japan. Now got steady day job but the guitar bug is still going strong and Im still gigging regularly with various mates' bands in the London/Tonbridge area. I'm really keen to find musicians wanting to play some rock / classic rock / punk / melodic hardcore covers out in the Reading area, maybe do some pub gigs here or there for a bit of fun, or something more committed.
Or, I'd love to start up something original if you've got the songs; i'm also keen to try out something with sequenced electronics; quite heavy, along the lines of NiN, Ministry, KMFDM kind of industrial stuff. I have all the electronic kit to to do this, so it's there as an option. Anyway message me if you want to try something out.
