The Regeneration + Band in Newcastle, EN

ABOUT

The Regeneration Project started just over a year ago. Members came and went so no line up exists at present. I play lead/rhythm guitar, slide guitar, mandolin, some bass. The style of music is established rock/blues and some folk. I have been playing for over 30 years in a variety of bands gigging in Hampshire, London, Midlands and Germany.
Due to health complications, i can no longer be team leader, so to speak. However, I can still play, albeit sitting or leaning on to a bar stool. I have such a passion for live music, playing and watching. So, please re-contact me with a view to get something happening by the summer.

Members Of Band

I am based in Northumberland, On the A69 slap bang in the middle between Newcastle and Carlisle. I am looking for musicians keen to get a gigging band together. One downside, I have Multiple Sclerosis which affects my ability to stand and play. So, I overcome that playing on a bar stool. I am ready to get started as of 30th April. Ready is an understatement, I am itching to get started soon as possible. From duos, trios, four piece etc I am ready. I am having a studio built over the next four to five weeks. It can be used to rehearse in, record, mix and master. This is it!

EQUIPMENT

Personal kit: Les Paul, Stratocaster and Telecaster. Acoustics, Ovation, 12 String D59er 6 string Fender, resonator, Mandolin, ukelele. Marshall 100 combi, Vox av50, Marshall 50 Acoustic amp.
I have a small PA. Recording facility, My philosophy is to rehearse and chat, not blast each other out of their shoes.
