Drummer needed for established alternative rock/pop-punk/emo band, Medway. The group write and play original material, are experienced and established within their brand, have management/representation, and are set to embark on week-long and weekender tours throughout 2021, pandemic permitting.
The group are about to release their second single with plans to return to the studio shortly thereafter to record the next bulk of songs, all of which are written and ready for performing.
Medway are seeking a new drummer to perform these shows and contribute to the group's writing process in the future. This follows the mutual and respectful departure of their current drummer, who has made the decision to focus on other elements of their life as the band is becoming increasingly more serious.
The ideal candidate would have the following traits, but none are truly essential:
- Be aged 20-25
- Possess a full driving
- Have self-recording facilities for demos and content.
- Be willing to commit to regular rehearsals.
- Be willing to perform multiple events for touring.
More on Medway:
Rising from the historic city of Bath in Somerset, Lauren, Tom, Rowan and Jack have been honing their impressive blend of corrosive and high-octane alternative rock with rhythmic, relatable pop-punk for some years; cutting their teeth in predecessor groups before coming together as Medway.
Medway delivers a message of authenticity; presenting songs built from within the environment of real-life personal events in an effort to help those who experience similar hurdles, as well as emphasise that listeners are not alone in their fight to overcome them. The band's debut single Disconnect resonates with this message expertly, journeying through themes of losslessness, lack of motivation, confusion and guilt.
Despite the obstacles of 2020’s coronavirus pandemic, Medway have been working hard throughout the year to construct and compose a wealth of new material with recording scheduled early 2021. This series of singles are set to release throughout the new year, building upon the high standards set by their debut Disconnect.
The first of these new singles, Remember August, is a moving and impassioned journey through the emotional nuances of past relationships and experiences. The song reflects on the turbulence and apprehension of these moments, concluding with revelations of finding solace and growth in overcoming these traumas. Remember August reaffirms Medway’s reputation for pure and unrelenting emotional honesty.
