SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Hi, for this part i'll try my best to sum up words for each instrument or... thing
With drums, I started lessons age 13 and practised with friends at school. I formed a band with a very creative someone who was heavily inspired by the Smiths - The Dalghetties (check out soundcloud/TheDalghetties), which lasted a year with gigs/venues at Riffs Bar, The Fleece and a small music concert in Purton, even a brief mention in the telegraph. Currently have a grade 5 cert and am working on grade 7.
On DAW's, I have 2 years of learnt experience in Music Technology at Cirencester college, which started 4 years ago. I like to experiment with adding electronic instruments into music and sometimes purely electronic... please feel free to check out either soundcloud/sebbertwebb or soundcloud/sebbertw where I have original creations, remixes, and bootlegs. I mainly use Ableton & Bitwig, and I have some experience with FL Studio and Logic.
For vocals, my mum signed me up to a theater group called Hampstead Factory about 8 years ago where I had to practise singing for musicals or song theatrics. I loved being there even though I finished after 2 years but thankfully I still sing to this day. I'm a little recording-shy, but i'll force myself with some covers soon.
With guitar, I'm mainly self-taught. It started with a guitar/singing group 2-3 years ago and now I read tabs or listen by ear to play along. I'm more use to finger style than I am with a pick.
Thanks for reading, and I hope you get in touch!
