SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Getting back to playing after a bit of a break. Have played most styles, started in punk, moved into rock, ska/reggae/funk, country, pop, etc.
Looking for something easy going. If your looking for bass then anything in the lists above would work. Need a singer? - I'm out of practice (except for drunken karaoke) and need to get my voice back in shape, but can get there. Let me know what your playing, and we'll have a look. Last time singing was 70s and 80s rock pre-covid.
While playing bass mostly I'm also moving across onto double bass. Play rhythm guitar too, and also have a guitar midi setup for adding extra backing, or keyboard parts without the need for a keyboard player.
Also worth noting, my Mrs is currently training as sound engineer, and she's working with my old PA.
If your interested you can get hold of me at big_mat_b at h o t m a I l dot com or oh seven nine eight 3 nine double seven three five eight.
