We are looking for a Drummer to form a new alternative rock band. We want to make dirty, sleazy fuzzy rock with decent doses of blues, punk, soul and the occasional pinch of folk and ska.
Influences and people we love: The Dead Weather, The Kills, Queens of the Stone Age, IDLES, The Distillers (anything to do with Brody Dalle), Placebo, Eels, Chilli Peppers, Amanda Palmer, Fiona Apple, Richard Thompson, Aldous Harding, Jace Everett, The White Stripes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, No Doubt, Radiohead, Royal Blood, Them Crooked Vultures, so many more.
We are looking for people who we can have fun bouncing ideas off. We want to be able to make our music “about something” and not be afraid about it. We want people who are going to get stuck into every aspect of being in a band, whether it’s concepts for material, artwork, stage presence and we want people who love all of it.
Ideally you will be flexible with your time, we are both working and involved in other projects (film/music/a sad sad full time job), but as long as we can meet up at least once a week and you are responsive when you can’t meet up. Nobody wants to feel like their passion project is a chore, and this is what we are looking to create; something beautiful, slowly over time, hopefully making some friends for life (no pressure haha).
We are looking to write originals, and eventually gig and record.
We are currently based in south west London but this is definitely a passion over location situation and are willing to travel around London (hopefully you are happy to travel around too)
All welcome, especially LGBTQ+ folk.
We are two queer people in their late 20s looking to make some sexy sounds. Come join us!
(Also, back in the 90’s, we were in a, very famous, TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVEEEE SHOOOOOOW)
