SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Bass Guitar, Drums, Other Percussion, Keyboard.ABOUT
I'm a guitarist in West London. I play a bit of bass too. I'm trained in sound engineering from recording through to mixing. I use Pro Tools but I'm a little familiar with Logic too.
Like lots of people, I like a lot of different music, and could list it all here, but I'm going to try and be concise about the music I'd like to create with other people.
I have a ton of bits-of-songs I've written over the years, and they need to get out of my head and into the world. Some are fairly complete, and some are just sprouting seeds.
Primarily I'm looking for a singer and lyricist with a similar frame of mind to complete them.
So, bands which I think give an idea of how I like to sound:
Saint Agnes
St Vincent
Savages
Nick Cave
Imelda May
Talking Heads
The Beatles (everyone has to say it, obviously)
Tonally how I like my guitars to sound:
Rory Gallagher
Jeff Beck
Supergrass
Some of these might sound quite different, but essentially the inspiration I get from these is the blend of energy, fun, aggression, directness, boldness, and, at the heart of it, soul.
