Hello, my band Gloom’s Gate is looking for a committed bass player/vocalist (if you can do both this would be ideal, but we’re happy to hear from anyone who wants to just play bass/just do vocals) to round out our line up. The drummer owns a studio in dawlish where we rehearse and we’ve recorded an EP which will be out early next year, I’m happy to send these songs to anyone who is seriously interested in joining the project.
Our influences include Black Sabbath, mastodon, Sleep, High on fire, kyuss, eyehategod, Conan, electric wizard etc.
Vocally someone with a good low growl would be perfect as that’s the style I went with on the EP (I can’t play guitar and do vocals at the same time however which is why we’re looking for someone to take over the role, but I can help with lyrics/vocal structure when it comes to writing)
Ability wise it would be helpful if you can jam, as our most fruitful writing sessions tend to start out as lengthy jam sessions which are recorded and then picked through to piece together the material. You don’t need to be the most technical player ever, but an understanding of song structure/part writing would be helpful.
We’re looking to practice once a week and play gigs regularly once the line up is set in stone and the set is well rehearsed, please only get in touch if you can realistically commit to this, we of course understand that life gets in the way of creative endeavours from time to time, but the drummer and I are serious about getting this project off the ground next year.
Access to a vehicle and your own equipment would be a plus but not essential as I drive and we have equipment you can borrow.
IMPORTANT: please email jakeburgessaul@gmail.com with the subject heading ‘Gloom’s Gate’ rather than replying on here because I’ll see it/get back to you faster.
