SEEKING
Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
We're a Hastings based duo, "The Mariners" (Carl and Andy), looking for a drummer and bass player. If you're interested email me (Andy) at ajconway180@.
We both started playing guitar aged 15ish, and started playing and singing together recently (I moved to Hastings at the end of 2011). We started off playing folk/blues but want to get a band together to play more energetic rock, rehearse and play some gigs.
We swap lead and rhythm guitar and lead and backing vocals. We?ve written a few songs together and individually and we?re always writing new stuff. We aspire to write songs with interesting and clever lyrics, memorable choruses, powerful riffs, short and sparse yet incisive solos, with a messy but tight sound.
We?re looking for musicians to jam with, write their own bass lines/drum beats, develop original music and have a good time while we do it.
We regularly play the open mic nights at the Hastings Arms (Wednesday) and Bar Blue (Tuesday), doing covers and our own songs. One of our favourite songs to play at the moment is a mash up of ?Hit the Road Jack? and ?Been Smoking to Long? (by Nick Drake).
