SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist.ABOUT
I like to play for fun but definitely also to entertain. I am most experienced playing drums but I’m Jazz-trained on piano and also enjoy playing other keyboards that include bass synth. I’m best at Jazz, Melodic, Acoustic but I usually need the chords for keys as I’m not good at playing by ear. I have transport for several nice drum kits from 24” bass drum to micro-Jazz for small venues and I have several keyboard setups that include 88 and double keys. I live in Westcliff-on-Sea, but I’m available days and eves for fun rehearsals and gigs in Essex, Kent and East and Central London. I'm prepared to travel extensively within London and can even transport my smallest kit by train for which I have a little JBL Eon Compact to mic the bass drum for larger gigs, so please let me know where you are so that we can talk further.
