Ello everyone.
South wales based drummer with 8+ years touring experience.
Toured/played with bands such as, Anthrax, Devildriver, clutch, sodom, GWAR
Festivals played, Download 2nd stage, BOA, Mamothfest, Damnation etc.
Currently been in a few projects as far as London and Bristol, so geography isn’t an issue for me.
Practice daily at my own drum space in wales, have a home electric kit which I’m in the middle of setting up to record at home so writing and content isn’t an issue.
Currently just paying a friend to make me backing tracks for to keep me busy however I’m looking to put together a band eventually.
Had a lot of bad experiences with young un-dedicated, flakey members who didn’t have jobs, borrowed money to make ends meet and simply wasn’t up to get hard work and graft. Some people these days just do t have what it takes and it’s a waste of everyone time and money.
I’m looking for like minded musicians to make music with, be that just online content creating or possibly get a sound we enjoy and are happy with to possibly push?
Ideally I’d like to make an EP, record it, make all content and videos prior to being made public. A solid package of content before shows and online presence is a must in this day and age.
I’ve been in bands where people can’t afford things and heels are dragge, money is borrowed which isn’t what a possible band/business should be ran like whatsoever.
Musts :
A job
Can drive
Ability to record at home and send tracks/ideas online for everyone to practice/write with.
Touring gear
Be available daily for updates
Must nots :
Be jobless or looking for work
Unwilling to write music regularly
Not being unreachable via telephone from more than 24hrs
All in all just looking for people to make good, fun, heavy/melodic music with and have a great time doing it.
Ideally want to be touring again but as I said I’m happy to make music other other for our own content and if we decide we want to take it a step further that would be great also.
( also not fussed on dressing like a Jedi on stage or look like I’ve been dragged through a men’s catalogue)

I take influences from most music if it’s good, however these are a list of bands I like the sound of and would be great to mash a sound together and find something interesting

Those are just some energetic bands I love and would like to capture a sound that ticks all the boxes that’s somewhat refreshing and new.
