Have been involved with music for as long as I can remember. Recently studied music and music tech at Huddersfield uni But it took the fun out of it so I dropped out. Am looking to join a rock band/ cover band of any sort (metal really isn’t my thing however I’m afraid) I can do all parts up to grade 8 standard apart from drums, I do not own a kit either so unless a kit can be provided I won’t be able to play drums. I have touring experience (been to France, Spain, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Germany and Poland), I also have a lot of music studio experience and can handle a studio as well as mix a live performance etc. Fundamentally I am a classically trained pianist and clarinetist but rock is my biggest interest. I’m just looking for a band to play gigs and have a great time with!

Influences
Debussy is number one for me
Rage against the machine, Muse those type of hard rock bands,
I like most rock ???? as long as it’s not the chilli peppers, catsh*t and the bottlemen or any new indie stuff...
I’m very much down for most things, be it short and sweet 60’s tunes or progressive rock masterpieces of the 70’s and 80’s.
