Hi there.
I am a 38 year old singer/acoustic guitarist looking to put together a good standard britpop/indie band, playing mainly bands from the 90s.
I am on the search for a good experienced lead guitarist who can handle playing solos properly, and have the ability to learn new songs easily. Also a high standard drummer who is willing to play the songs as they are, and not "put their own twist on it".
I have many years experience playing originals and covers around the UK. I now have a young family, so this would only be rehearsing once a week and gigging 2 or 3 times a month.
I'm hoping to find likeminded musicians who are willing to work hard at building a good set for people to really enjoy. (There's far too many double denim Cock rock classic rock bands out there in my opinion).
The sought of bands I have in mind, are:
Primal Scream
Embrace
Cast
The Verve
Supergrass
Oasis
Shed Seven
James
Suede
The La's
The Bluetones
Ocean Colour Scene
The Charlatans
The Stone Roses
Radiohead
Dodgy
The Smiths
New Order
Gene
The Longpigs
Mansun
Pulp
Paul Weller
Kula Shaker
Doves
The Seahorses
Etc etc etc
I am also very keen to find a piano/keys player willing to fill out the sound and add thick string parts to the songs.
Ideally, the plan is to give people aged 25 to 45 a great night out at one of our gigs. This is not setting out to be an Oasis pub tribute act, but a feel good trip down memory lane playing uplifting indie anthems..
I look forward to hearing from people into that genre.
My number is 07429778345
Cheers
Scott
