SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

I’ve played in a few indie and party bands on and off for several years. I focus mainly on playing bass, but also play guitar, backing vocals and recently started playing drums. I wrote and played a lot of original stuff in the late 90’s around Camden and the London Indie pub scene. Currently playing in a party covers band in pubs and clubs around South West London and
on the lookout for a new party/covers or tribute band to join with other committed musicians.
