About us
Several releases on the major streaming services, 3-4 gigs a month (when we're allowed) supporting well-known names in the punk community and playing some large festivals.
Generally, full band practices fortnightly on Tuesdays and occasional songwriting/low vol sessions on the weeks in between if you wish to come along.
Pretty laid back atmosphere definitely a team with a family feel, however we take pride in being professional and organised when it comes to the music and gigging.
Most gigs are weekends but there may be odd occasions when we need to set off 4ish etc on a weeknight to get to a venue in London or the Midlands (fairly rare, most weeknight gigs would be local).
Influences to our style: 70's punk rock n Roll (Anti -Nowhere league, The Dictators, The Damned, Stiff little Fingers), Motorhead, Danko Jones, Eddy and the Hotrods, Early Therapy, Social distortion, Rancid, and a dash of green day

About you
Looking for someone with prior band experience and at least a little gigging experience aged mid 20s to mid 50s..ish. Hopefully it goes without saying we dont care about gender etc. Ideally happy to have a go at Backing vocals.
Enthusiastic to play gigs and travel (own transport essential unless you live in Swindon)
Available on a chat app or text for at least some part of the day in case of last-minute bookings and for general band chat now and then. Generally we have to let promoters know the same day we are asked to play.
Can be energetic on stage.
Other Info:
If you are looking specifically for paid gigs look elsewhere, we can offer some great opportunities at legendary venues but not all shows come out with a profit for original bands although, we split it evenly (and the reverse is true of costs like practice room hire or album recording).
Song writing is currently done by the two guitarist vocalists (at least the starting melodies and lyrics) but once the song is on the table its a team effort to get it sounding its best and suggestions are encouraged. We cant wait to see what you can do!
