SEEKING
Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Background Singer.ABOUT
Sep 2024:
Based in Christchurch, TLT is me, the singer/guitarist/songwriter from the original music band "Lonely Trees", which has run its course and no longer exists. I'm looking for new collaborators - a bass player, drummer and another guitarist.
If you sing, even better. And anyone who plays both guitar and keyboards might also fit in. As might a textural guitarist who doesn’t fall into rhythm or lead categories. There are opportunities and possibilities.
If you think an original music band might be for you, just pop me a PM and we can talk about it.

Influences
I try to be blind to genres, but if pushed, my own stuff is influenced by melodic guitar pop/rock groups (Big Star, MC5, Jam, XTC), early '70s progressive music (Yes, Genesis, VDGG), Can/Neu type stuff and anything else that moves me. Also partial to Richard Thompson, David Sylvian, PJ Harvey, Warpaint, Television, Joni Mitchell and Laura Marling. Most of what I've written doesn't sound like any of them, though - but that's who helped shape me. What about you?
