I used to sing in a Power POP band in Spain. I also co-wrote all our songs, that is the melody of the voice and lyrics. We gigged most weekends all around the county and many festivals. We recorded 5 CDs and had a good underground following.
Then, I formed an Indie band, also in Madrid where I played Rythym guitar as well as singing and writing.
Since moving back to the UK, I mostly just play with mates or I have busked occasionally. I’m definitely no virtuoso on the guitar but can play power chords without too much trouble, I do have a natural ear and rythym.
Nowadays, I just miss having a band or, at least another guitarist to jam with. I would love to get back out there but prefer playing the odd cover rather than just play covers all the time. I would like to do pared down indie/acoustic folk/indie would work too but open to seeing what’s out there...I love to harmonise too so, ideally another guitarist who sings and our voices could work around each other would be ideal.
