ABOUT

Yo!

My name is Lucas, I'm a 27-year-old singer/songwriter. Originally from France, I have lived in and around Manchester for the last 10 years and I've just moved to Huddersfield.
I have moved to Manchester from France with my two former bandmates at the age of 17 with the idea of becoming a touring/recording artist.

Since then, I have played over a thousand gigs, recorded as a band, a session musician and a solo artist and played several residencies in hotels abroad. I'm currently playing cover gigs and weddings solo and as a band every weekend but I really want to put my focus on original music.

‘If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.’

I guess I’ve had my fair share of the fast lane for a while. Time to make things happen as a band!

I am currently looking for a drummer, bass player, guitarist(s) and keyboard player to be part of my band. I'm also open to other instruments and multi-instrumentalists. I have a great and ever-expanding body of songs at the ready and big dreams to fulfil and share with like-minded fellas.

I'm looking for dedicated, committed and advanced musicians, ready to take their fun seriously, practice regularly in Manchester/Huddersfield and eventually tour the UK and beyond. Ideally in their 20's or early 30's. Being able to sing harmonies and having your own transport would be a great plus.

Please get in touch if you can relate to the above and want me as your frontman/singer/songwriter/brother-from-another-mother/partner-in-crime/dream-fellow or share with your friends and contacts if you know anyone who might be interested.
