I have gigged original material in a former band about 10 years ago around Liverpool and Manchester, but this is a new venture. Most importantly musically to me: the groove, always sprinkled with funk; spacey, memorable guitar parts; ambient soundscape; ambiguous and thought-provoking lyrics.
I'm comfortable singing up front and playing lead but also comfortable to share those roles as I can lay a groove with bass and rhythm parts and drum pads through a looper, as well as ambient fills with effects, bass, vocals, strings etc. Ideally would like to form a duo or trio and start gigging.
So, I have some other songs in the pipeline, but after listening to what is here if you think it is up your street then get in touch on typeface77(at)(dot)com
