Hi everyone, we are Kites, an indie-rock band based in Newcastle -
To preface, this isn't a band for people who are just seeking to play for fun, we see this as a viable career path and we'll be working very hard to make it a reality.
That said, we're a very driven group of lads and have clear goals set out for the future. We've been gigging for 2 months or so now playing a mix of covers and original songs, however as we grow we hope to switch this to just playing originals. We've been together for around a year and a half and we all have 10+ years of experience with our instruments. All of us are 18-20 years old so someone around that age would be ideal. Influences include but aren't limited to:
The Beatles
The Stone Roses
The Verve
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Oasis
Arctic Monkeys
The Kinks
Only Real
DMA's
Catfish And The Bottlemen
The Seahorses
Suede
Led Zeppelin
The White Stripes
Peace
Circa Waves
Death Cab For Cutie
Coldplay
Stereophonics
The Kooks
Paolo Nutini
Nirvana
Soundgarden
The Killers
Kodaline
The Fray
The Cure
Kasabian
The Wombats
The Rolling Stones
Linkin Park
Metallica
Gorillaz
MGMT
Courteeners
Weezer
Queens of the Stone Age
The Coral
The Hives
Royal Blood
The Lumineers
The Smiths
To begin with, we'll have 3 3-hour rehearsals per week at nemix in Newcastle; times are flexible until we arrange them for definite. If this sounds good to you, please get in touch either by sending us a private message in reply to this ad, or dropping us a message on our Facebook page @ www.facebook.com/kitesbanduk, we'd love to give you a go.
Cheers and we look forward to hearing from you,
Kites
