Drummer and singer/guitarist seeking other musicians to join up with.
Based in N.E. Lincolnshire. We are playing a mixture of Country, Folk, Americana, and other interesting styles of music.
Emphasis so far has been on acoustic guitar and melodic electric guitar rather than distortion and heavy rock. We like it that way.
So mainly acoustic guitar, clean-ish Rickenbacker and twangy telecaster gets our vote. Maybe some Fender Jag !
Bands and artists that we are currently looking to cover are but not limited to might include;
The Kinks. ( Primarily the more refined material and not you really got me etc)
The Small Faces (The more folk side of the band from Ronnie's influence, stuff like mad John etc.) Also very interested in Ronnie's own folk style music in his own right and with Townshend.)
So if you like Dylan, Neil Young, Petty, Byrds, REM, Jayhawks, Uncle Tupelo, Nirvana, The Who, Pearl Jam, Temple of the Dog, Elliot Smith/Heatmiser, Ian Noe, Son Volt, Sonic Youth, Wilco, Springsteen etc etc you will be among the like minded.
We probably don't want another guitarist at the moment unless you can sing great as well.
We are more in need of a melodic bassist that is not afraid of the microphone.
A long shot but worth asking as yer never know is that we would greatly appreciate a keyboard player as a good chunk of the material has either piano or Hammond/Rhodes in it.
Now the important bits -
We are honest and like a laugh but are serious about music.
We have good gear, own transport and loads of PA/lighting etc for our own gigs later on.
Initially we intend to practice up this way most likely in Grimsby. Possibly Scunnie depending. We are going to play a few open mics together fairly soon and will build on that.
Age isn't important or your gender. We are both in our 30's and 50's and male.
Don't miss out ....
