ABOUT

I have been regular gigging in a 6 piece band for the last 10 years playing pop and rock covers.
I am looking to join a band whether established or just starting with a view to gigging as well as jamming/rehearsing/studio work. I am happy doing backing vocals and/or lead - I think a good mix of 2 or more vocals create a great wall of sound and depth to a song.
Personally I am a 5ft bundle of craziness - quirky and fun. I know how to have a laugh and can be shamelessly sarcastic but ultimately I am just passionate about making music.
I also know my way around the tech side so can pull my weight when it comes to setting up gear and sound checking. It winds me up seeing diva singers just standing around watching (or chatting with their mates) when it's time to set up or lug gear back to the car/van!
