SEEKING

ABOUT

M E L I S or MELIS-SILEM newer soundcloud. I am looking for a bass player/and or keys, singer/and or keys and drummer.
Want to play simple riffs with a band that listens to each other with good dynamics. I play guitar but have always been a drummer, so I need groove rather than math metal chops or technical boringness
Zeppish , Pixies, Wet Leg, Zappa, but more simple and with room for improv....Not into perfectionism, but prefer people willing to tune down to Eflat all the time and then C on occasion.
Heavy dose of Funk Hip hop grooves, melodic genius will be required for singing or have a unique but tuneful voice?!
should be a great vibe and groovy.
Plus arabic scales and Heavy blues
