We’re a newly formed 3-piece rock/metal covers band based in Stoke-on-Trent looking for a lead guitarist to complete the line-up.
Currently bass/lead vocals + drums. Both of us have played in bands and gigged in the past, although we've both had a decent break from music, so we're getting back into it and finding our feet again.
The idea is simple: get together, make some noise, have a laugh and gradually get properly tight as a band, with the aim of being ready to start gigging during 2027.
We're serious about rehearsing and actually learning the songs, but we're definitely not looking for massive egos or people judging every mistake. It's a learning process for everyone. We want somebody on the same wavelength who wants to enjoy playing music while still putting the effort in.
We're thinking rehearsals roughly once a fortnight / every 2–3 weeks, depending on everyone's commitments.
Age isn't particularly important. We'd just prefer someone mature, reliable, ideally drives and has their own gear.
???? CURRENT SET:
AC/DC – Highway to Hell
AC/DC – Sin City
Black Sabbath – Paranoid
Black Sabbath – War Pigs
Judas Priest – Breaking the Law
Judas Priest – Living After Midnight
Metallica – Enter Sandman
Metallica – For Whom the Bell Tolls
Motörhead – Ace of Spades
Motörhead – Killed by Death
Rory Gallagher – Bad Penny
Thin Lizzy – Rosalie
ZZ Top – Jesus Just Left Chicago
ZZ Top – Sharp Dressed Man
ZZ Top – Waitin’ for the Bus
That's 15 songs to start with, with plenty more to be added as we get going. ????
We're not trying to become rock stars or make this a second job. We just want to put together a tight, loud, proper rock band, play some cracking songs, have a laugh doing it and get out gigging.
If that sounds like your sort of thing, drop me a message and have a chat. ????????
Cheers ????
Jim Harley
