SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar.ABOUT
Looking to join an alternative/rock/indie/grunge shoegaze type band. Bands like NVM, Coder, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana/Foo Fighters, Deftones, Wolf Alice, The Verve, Endless Heights, Ben Howard, Catfish And The Bottlemen, The Amazons, Sam Fender, The Cure, Paramore, Superheaven, Sonic youth, , Silverside Pickups, Replacements and Goo Goo Dolls. I’ve been playing drums on and off for about 17 years. By no means am I a professional musician, but have played plenty of gigs and some recording experience. Still learning today and it never stops. Music as we all know, has no limits and there is always new techniques and ideas! I do have another project on the go at the moment called Days Become Dark which are a new wave post punk band from Kent. But am also looking to jam and maybe write some songs, possibly future gigs with a more Alternative/Grunge/Shoegaze band.

Drum recording Demo-untitled- DAYS BECOME DARK
Drum recording Demo-untitled- DAYS BECOME DARK Track number: 5 Year: 2023 Genre: Alternative
Recorded drums in one take along with a demo made by a friend of mines project. I played when I felt never hearing the song before so the drums recorded are a bit over the top but it was a fun song to play too. Just gives an idea of how I work when put in a situation with to record drums on the spot.
